142 Pubs and Counting

There are Two Irish Pubs inside The Villages, Florida. I Went to Both, and I'm Counting Them.
I'm clumping these two Pubs together into one article, because they're a bit outside of the "Drunken Mallard" SOP. One of them, McCall's, doesn't serve Guinness and has a western theme to it, but it has an Irish name and a shamrock on their logo and front door... so I'm counting it. The other, McGrady's/Sawgrass Tavern, is more of a Pub, but still a little flimsy.

An Outsider's Look into The Villages, Florida as the 2027 Snowbirds Fly in.
You have to remember that social media influencers make the most money when people "engage" with their content, so the more they "bash" and belittle The Villages online, the more they know people will throw in their 2 cents, which ultimately rakes in more cash for their channels, despite the fact that most of the things they say are total crap (and they know it). The loofah thing? Total crap.

McCracken's Irish Pub. Leesburg, Florida
Nothing beats a neighborhood Pub where you know who'll be there on what day and at what time talking about roughly the same thing each visit. Without that, then you're just a public bench without any tradition, character, or allure.

Shamrock Lounge & Package. Leesburg, Florida.
There's a printed sign on the wall that says, "No fighting, if you do, you're barred for 30 days, no exceptions." I think it's hilarious. Most Pubs will ban you for life if you pick a fight. Here at the Shammy Lounge? Eh, just disappear for 30 days, let those raccoon eyes recover, and bring a case of beer for the fridge next time you come in and we'll call it even.
