TORPY AT LARGE: WHAT DID APD LEARN OM THE EAGLE GAY BAR FIAS?

And as to the prev review of guys purple drs makg a bad night, that was actually a fund raiser for gay youth group. Read our transparency report to learn 2016 • CouplMy partner and I head here on a Saturday night based on the remendatn of lols and maybe was an off night but the club was fairly ad even at the advised 1130PM wchg hour, In addn, the club openly adms straight women wh their gay male iends ( que a few) which I nnot unrstand a bar that is supposed to ter to mascule gay men.

Perhaps, more notorly, durg s n as the Atlanta Eagle—a gay leather bar om 1987 to 2020—the nightspot ma headl for a botched 2009 police raid, where members of the vice squad, lookg for illegal dg e and acts of public sex, yelled anti-gay slurs and handcuffed patrons and employe face down on the bar floor.
