The Many Faces of Mickey Finn. Thread starter Steelhead Junkie Start date Apr 25, Steelhead Junkie Well-known member. Messages Reaction score 0. When I first started tyin' flies, I was under the impression that all Mickey Finns were tied with silver tinsel body, oval silver tinsel, a wing composed of three equal parts of yellow, red, yellow bucktail, and a black thread head.

I was wrong. I have found and created variations raging from small adjustments in the wing colour amounts red equal to both parts yellow to mixed fibres, givin' the fly an almost orange apperance, to mylar bodies and red tags, to peacock herl toppins' and red yarn butts. My question is what type do you tie, and whats the most unusual variation you've heard of??

Joni Well-known member. Classically, the Mickey Finn has been used to create an easy mark for robbery. Just as the bartender for whom the drink is named did in the late s, a thief can slip someone a Mickey, as they say, and then help themselves to the victim's wallet and jewelry. Enterprising thieves may even take house and car keys for the purpose of a more extended crime spree.

A more sinister use of the Mickey Finn evolved in the late 20th century, when people started using drugs to spike drinks at clubs and parties for the purpose of committing rape. King Louie East also was the first center in the area and I seem to recall hearing it was the first center in America to install bumpers in the gutters. The early bumpers were mechanical and the gutter actually turned over and revealed a brightly colored panel of white with bright colored dots all down the lane to give players targets to aim at at various distances down the lane.

The first time I ever tried it I didn't really need bumpers, I just tried it for the fun of it. And the first ball I threw, I picked out a dot, threw the ball right at it, and scored a double-rail strike.

I've had less success at it ever since. King Louie purchased that bowling center in the late s or early s. It had long been known merely as Plaza Bowl. Or as Sam Molen would explain in the opening each week, "Man against man, woman against woman. These were just local league bowlers, not particularly skilled players. They would compete in a single game match for small cash prizes.

Then at the end of the match, they would get to roll at a series of spares for small gifts like supermarket gift certificates and toasters. I remember two of the spares they would shoot at, the spare and the spare. Then the man and woman who won their matches would go on to attempt to pick up the Schlozmann Ford split, either the or , for a chance to win a new Ford automobile.

This show stayed on the air all the way into the '60s or '70s. Then about six months ago, I learned that Plaza Bowl was owned before it was sold to King Louie by the Audsley family. Who were the Audsleys, you ask? Good question. They had a daughter named Judy. Judy Audsley in the early '60s was known as the best girl bowler in Kansas City, as she was winning everything. By the late '60s, she'd gone out on the women's tour and was starting to make some noise out there.

She seemed destined to a career of greatness as a bowler. Sure enough, along the way she met a man named Dave Souter and married him, and today we know her as bowling Hall of famer Judy Soutar. And she grew up bowling at Plaza Bowl. Welcome, Private Messages : Unread. Note: Your browser does not have JavaScript enabled. Many features may not work properly without it.

Okay, here's a real golden oldie for you. This will be of particular interest to anyone in the greater Kansas City area and oddly enough, in Oakland, California who is old enough to remember.

But I gotta say that something tells me this might stir something in all of you who are true bowling fans.
