Auction at Stinkers!


We were planning a future visit to Stinkers, a truck-stop (and skunk) themed bar in Silverlake, when my favorite doorman at the Bigfoot Lodge told me there going to class the place up. My immediate concern: What will happen to all those cute skunk butts?!

Stinkers, one would assume, gets its name from the stuffed skunks on display everywhere. The mounted skunk rear ends above the bar emit a cloud of steam at the press of a button. It's not everyone's brand of humor, which might play a part in why the bar is going to transform.

The manager informs me that they're going to auction off the decor, skunk butts included, this Tuesday. The preview starts at 8p and the auction, at 9. We'll be at a private gig, so we can't make it, but if you want some low-brow decor, head to Stinkers at 2939 W Sunset Blvd.
