Dress Code



This strange sign is on the door to the Keyhole, a bar near the Grove Street PATH.

I looked at it for a while and considered the traditional clientele of the bar, which has in the past occasionally involved drunk old guys and our local version of Stanley Kowalski—yes, some in tank tops—stumbling around in front of the door. I concluded that either the gentrification of the area has led the bar to attempt to provide a more comfortable environment for their newer clients, the bar has tired of drunk old guys and workers stumbling around, or else, mysteriously, men who wear tank tops misbehave while men in sleeves do not.
