I live about 25 miles from Gulf Shores. I do not personally know the owner, but I am planning on riding there tomorrow for a charity benefit. (I will not go if it storms, but the outlook is good at this time.) I'll let you know by Monday. How did you know about the Florabama?

I travel pretty extensively and have done so for the past 8 years out of college. Traveling I-10 from California to Florida during one 6 week sojourn my friends and I detoured from Mobile down to Gulf Shores. It was late August or early Sept and very few touristas in this beach community, we enjoyed great weather and awesome seafood. The Florabama was a local beach bums recommendation. We partied there 2 consecutive nights. Loose redneck women (redneck=term of endearment) and free-flowing drinks reasonably priced. At the Florabama we bought t-shirts that only a proud redneck would wear. It seems like we met someone claiming to be the owner of this undomesticated southern restaurant/club but some people after a few drinks will tell you they slept in the Lincoln bedroom with the president's wife. Anyhow, I simply got to thinking about the Florabama/Pensacola/Gulf Shores since I remember having a damn fine time in the southernmost parts of Alabama. Let me know of some fancy t-shirts you may have noticed and if you do meet the owner(s) does he have a ZZ top beard, bald with long hair growing fom the sides of his scalp (brownish/grey) appearing to be mid-50's and with an inclination to pinch the behind of bikini clad women.
