BD took a walk on the strip last evening, and was hit with enough good gossip to fill a few pages here.

Let's start with the high (low?) points, and work our way down the tubes.

DPD reports a sexual assault at a bar on the 1900 block of Greenville Avenue (Sunday note: The DPD is not convinced this incident actually took place at the noted location, but the report has not been updated yet) late Thursday evening. The report is online at this link.

Ibero might - just might - be closing its doors (from my lips to God's ears). Sources tell BD that current (former?) Ibero employees are knocking on the doors of other bars on the strip, saying Ibero is going to close after New Years Eve. We've asked TABC and DPD for information - details to follow. It was closed on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, but Club 180 was open.

While being delinquent on your liquor beverage bills is a way of life for some bar owners, there are an unusually large number of past-dues in our area. The latest TABC delinquent list (which means they can't buy beer or liquor until the bills are paid) includes the following bars in 75206 - Blue Collar (Henderson), Glo Lounge (Henderson), Greenville Avenue Public House (Greenville), Hector's on Henderson (Henderson), Ibero (Greenville), Stoney's Bottle Bargains (Upper Greenville), Trader Vic's (Central/Mockingbird), and Zymology (Greenville, closed earlier this year).

BD will post the 2009 Dallas Police Department Public Intoxication Arrestees list for Lowest Greenville in late January. If you have not yet been busted for PI on Lower Greenville, you still have a few weeks left to get in the paddy wagon and on the list.
