Alice in Chains on the jukebox and clown paintings but everyone on their phones - you put me there, Jenn. So, why is it named Nob Hill? <she asks snottily, formerly of San Francisco, where there are probably no dive bars left>
Actually I don’t know. And I make it a rule to not do research. I notice there are a couple neighborhoods also called Nob Hill (nowhere near there but).
I like doing direct observation rather than research - just seems like asking people at the bar where the name comes from might yield intriguing answers - not necessarily factually correct but another window onto human nature. I love the answers people give to questions like that :-)

I’m sure I could’ve gotten lots of cool info from the bartender. I’ll have to chat more with them when I go back.
Just stay safe on East Colfax :-)
Seeeeriously.
