Blazing Saddle

its a great place to meet and dance your night away.

We have been going to Des Moines for over 20 years and Blazing Saddles is always packed with fun and friendly people.

Very good bar...great staff...great Friday afternoons for Happy Hour...Nice people there...enough Eye Candy if you are looking for it. One of the prettiest drag queens in the US makes the Saddle her home and it's all just a good environment!

I used to be a happy, optimistic man who believed in the goodness of others until I started frequenting the Blazing Saddle. The hateful, jaded, horrible attitudes of the staff (minus Gary, who's a GEM), and patrons, stuck on thier own viewpoints of who's worthwhile (usually involving money and sex appeal, rather than virtues, humanity, or sincerity...dont get me wrong, Im an attractive man with a very large d*ck, I just refused to cave to thier shallowness), have left me disparaging, and disappointed in homos everywhere.

I just wanted to comment on all the straight people that go to the Saddle and how disrespectful they are to us lesbians. They hate to see a pretty girl with another girl. I use to love going there now I think about it twice. I don't have a problem with some straight people I know anybody is entitled to go but it's just unconfortable when me & my girlfriend are kissing or trying to dance and the people who are not gay are critizing us knowing that we are obviously in a gay bar! And on Latin nights we cant even dance, it's so uncomfortable now, it's like it's not even a gay bar. Straight guys go to check out the lesbians and straight girls go to check out the guys. I was wondering if there was ever any thought in maybe extending the saddle so that we are all be comfortable especially now that its not a gay bar its a shared bar! Oh and one last thing why isn't there any pictures of people who go there it would be nice to look up the saddle's website and see people who are regulars there having a good time. Thanks for your time :-)
