So a group of us walked around the Rock Island District area and Malarkey's seemed like THE place…read moreto be. It was crowded than most of the other bars and the music was poundin'. So we said that we'll check this place out since everyone seems like they're all having a good time and there was no cover charge. The bar was packed, people dancing on the little dance floor, and there were people playing beer pong. Next to the bar, they have a pool table and a dart board. Seemed like everyone in there was ordering jugs of beer. I, on the other hand, kept ordering shots. I was taking advantage because the shots here were cheap as well. So I walked around and made it by the dance floor. It was about a 10X8 dance floor and some song came on and everyone on that dance floor were doing line dancing! Wow! You never see that in LA. I wasn't feelin' the crowd very much because it seemed more like an 18+ joint. So after an hour and half, we all decided to bolt out and call it a night. I'd give it a one star, but since they have cheap shots, I'm giving it an extra star.

On holiday from the UK but got good old American racism. Female security guard on Thursday accused…read moremy friend of harassing her and threatened to call the police because he to get in the club. He left his ID at home but had proof on his phone (several clubs let him with his ID on his phone on the same night) but not physically, he asked to teoce get in a polite and calm manner but yet she somehow, she was accusing of him of "harassing" her and threatened and to call the police for absolutely no reason. He then went home to get his ID to returned to the club, I came out to speak to him and I got kicked out for no clear reason aside from speaking to him. I had my ID, I was sober and did absolutely nothing wrong, they couldn't even justify or explain why they kicked me out. And to Make matters worse, there was this racist message In The bathroom. Living in the UK, you hear a lot about racism in the US but it's sad see it's really as racist as they say.

How do you field about this place? I'll tell you how I feeled…read more We had a lot of fun at the Fieldhouse. But who wouldn't? Definitely one of the coolest places in Iowa City to hang out with all the college kids and wild partying folks. The one problem that we had with the Fieldhouse was violence! There were some absolute punks trying to make trouble because there was the beauty queen of the century dressed like a glamour model (swoon swoon swoon), and she was with a guy that looked like a short Latin Prizefighter (as in, a mismatch to superficial types, she was a foot taller than him) and these very aggressive tall punks apparently thought she was too good for him so they tried to start a fight by touching her and making inappropriate comments and insulting her boyfriend. So I had to come in between them and I got smacked for my trouble. I helped to prevent a really bad fight and then the police showed up and they tried to arrest both the punks and the boyfriend and the hot girlfriend. So I had to explain to the police that I had no relation to any of the people in the fight and that there were really only one set of instigators and the other ones were just trying to defend themselves. And that she was molested. In the end I managed to talk everyone down with the help of my good friend the police officer and nobody got arrested but it was some really messed up stuff. The cop was either going to arrest everyone, or nobody. So it was better for everybody that nobody get arrested. You're welcome, cutie and cutie's bf. Call me. But yeah, the crowd in here - insane. Wall to wall, sea of people, like sardines. Loud and crazy. Sometimes even playing good music. Sometimes.

Heard about this place through their charity work/events. The group was fun and invited us to…read morecheck them out. Fast forward to a few weeks later. Had a blast, casual and comfortable. Kind of reminds me of a local place for family and friends to check in but when the entertainment started it was loud and exciting. Best belly laughs ever. They are labeled as a "gay" bar, the only gay thing about the place is the level of fun you have. Straight customers that will visit again when we are in the area. They even had the Cubs game on when we first arrived.
