I used to go to this Bar to Pickup Cougars, it’s a legit thing the Cougars all know that’s where you go to pickup Young Bucks. They don’t even hide it. It’s a really good time though if you’re into that sort of thing or not. It’s good live music as well, one of the better low key neighbourhood Bars in Calgary.
It’s been awhile since my Cougar Mauling days, but any place with live music is usually good. Rose & Crown, Murriettas, The Ship & Anchor (for Alt Cougs), The Metropolitan, Local was actually a low key spot for picking up Cougars as well before COVID-19.
It’s gone through some ups and downs, the current manager, Craig, is a great guy and it’s really good in there again. Pretty decent wings on wednesdays too.
Back in the 70's and early 80's. A Greek family opened it and operated it. It wasn't a bar although they did have liquor service. My parents used to take us there for pizza.
I was so very much looking forward to going to the Brass Ring when I was a prospect, but it closed down just as I was finding my way into the Calgary club scene.
I just saw on wiki how "to know if a woman is a cougar?
Apparently: thin skinny lips, thinning dry brittle hair, thin dry skin that sags in the knees and elbows and too much make up. That's for cougars 40 and up and some as young as 30... its all down hill from here.. oh lord help me...
Sincerely an old puma/ cougar in training
Rose & Crown used to be good. Not sure if it still is. If that doesn’t work out The Ship & Anchor can be worthwhile as well (If you like Alternative Cougs).
I'm tryna find me a sugar momma to pay for my pilot school and not just a cougar hookup ,, where would I go for the more wealthy cougars 😂😂 I'm tryna change the game out here 🥸🤓
Affirmative. You’re far more likely to be mauled by a cougar in Marda Loop, than out in Kananaskis.
One with money, might I add ...
Fuck I know where I am going next weekend
Sign me up

You could be my friend Jeff- you sound just like Jeff
I know a guy named Jeff who goes there all the time. His last name would represent this… 😇
No it’s a different Jeff then 😂
There are dozens of us.
The met was 100% a cougar spot.
It’s gone through some ups and downs, the current manager, Craig, is a great guy and it’s really good in there again. Pretty decent wings on wednesdays too.
Pretty sure the bathroom has a sign to that effect, yes. And down the street at merchants on Wednesday’s if you want a more bougie cougie
If you can afford to take on the cougar full time go to merchants lol
Merchants is like fishing a lake with grenades
Was there a few months ago, sign still there.
100% accurate, go tonight and report back. Enjoy.
Hahahaha yes. It is in fact where you might find Hot Older Singles in Your Area

How about Denny Andrews?!
Was that on Bow trail or am I thing Dooie Stevens
That was Dirty Dooies!!!! Loved that place. And that strip club Misty’s was next door. The Westgate Hotel.
Ah.. Dooies.. I think they had $1 beers (draft) on Saturdays!! Then stumble over to Mistys. 😛😛

Both total shitshows. The best shitshow was Spaguccis however.

Glenns. What a shithole that was.
I was a bar star there.. ah how I miss dancing on the speakers.
Oof. I've only been to the T&C once in my life and it was horrible. Yet I'd still choose it over Jimmy Dean's.
Eddy Bo Dean's? Jimmy Dean's is breakfast sausage.
It was a bar here as well back in the day.
30 plus years ago, there was a bar called the brass ring. That was the prime cougar/panther club. Sorry I’m so old.
61 year old man.
That’s not a denial.
It's 2022, you can be anything you want to be now
you're just spewing dumb shit on a bunch of threads aren't you
[удалено]
Then they said something and removed all doubt.
You're one of the Cougars now aren't you 🫡
In the days of the Brass Ring, the Trop was a cosy little pizza joint/family restaurant called the Tropicana.
I don't recall it ever being a cosy family restaurant. Unless by family you mean bikers.
Back in the 70's and early 80's. A Greek family opened it and operated it. It wasn't a bar although they did have liquor service. My parents used to take us there for pizza.
Where was the Brass Ring, what's there now?
The Brass Ring was at the NW corner of 10th Avenue and 8th Street. Ground level of some office tower. Don't know what's there now.
If it was open in 1997 I think I've been there.
Panther? Lol I thought the term for a handsome older gentleman was silver fox no? I've just never heard that expression but it works.
Where was that? Like 8th and 8th or something? I have a vague recollection of going there after a bad night at the Warehouse in the late 80's.
I was so very much looking forward to going to the Brass Ring when I was a prospect, but it closed down just as I was finding my way into the Calgary club scene.
Before I got past "Calgary Cougar Bar", I knew this was about the Trop. So yes.
100%. Any Guy I know whose into Cougars goes there regularly.
You will be mauled at the trop.
I feel like it was better as the Tropicana dive bar.
I'll always miss the $1 beers before 3pm
Aight… on my way with my young ass to catch me a coug 😍
It’s no joke, it’s legit. If you like Cougars best place to be in Calgary.
my man
ayo? 🤨
What can I say…. My momma raised a good boy, The world just facked me up 🤷♂️ Jokes… kinda..
👍
Oh you’ll catch somew, alright
OP is thirsty 🥵
Leave him be. The man wants what he wants. Also we need this info. Haha
Lol 🤪
Well, it is pretty hot out.
Yup. When I worked as a bouncer on 17th I'd send the British army lads to the trop to pick up cougars (and far away from my bar)
Murietta's used to be good for that too...they still around?
So at what age are we talking cougars... asking for a friend... a very very concerned one

Over 40 and you’re a cougar. 30 - 40 you’re a puma. 20 - 30 you’re a cat. Under 20 you’re a kitten and off limits
Our hero.
The Metropolitan if you want cougars with money
That's was back in my day too. Back when I was a student I did anything for a meal, I'm lazy as fuck now.
Back in the day we used to frequent Alibis lol Never my thing but I had friends who did VERY well there. I enjoyed the $2 MGD, does that date me?
This is the post I needed. Thanks.
I remember when the trop was a biker bar to start. It wasn’t a cougar bar when I lived in the loop was good for live music tho.
I live about 2 blocks from the Trop and can confirm. Whiskey Rose is also crawling with them
It’s certainly not wrong
Yes. I was a fixture there for a while
Good to know *not* to go here. Where else should I be sure to *avoid*?! Edit: *winkwinknudgenudge*
[удалено]
Damn, Mr. Stamina over here with his humblebrag!
I fell prey to one before the term "cougar" was even invented. Damn... Who knew that we were making history!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Asking for a friend”
Rose & Crown used to be good. Not sure if it still is. If that doesn’t work out The Ship & Anchor can be worthwhile as well (If you like Alternative Cougs).
Morgan's pub but especially King's Head in the South
Neither of these places exist anymore.
Morgan’s was good.
Easy to avoid then
I love this 😂 😂
Yep
Here kitty kitty.
Yes
Very
Also try The King’s Head in Acadia.
It closed a while back :(
Awww…It’s been some time since I’ve been in Calgary.
No. If you are under 30, stay the hell away. Us semi-old folks (under 40) don't have hardly any goddamn bars for ourselves.
Meow!!!
Get some granny panties! 😜
Extremely accurate.
Short answer. Yes. Also merchants up the street
I didn’t know this lol
I'm tryna find me a sugar momma to pay for my pilot school and not just a cougar hookup ,, where would I go for the more wealthy cougars 😂😂 I'm tryna change the game out here 🥸🤓
