Palm Beach's Colony Hotel - Thursday night Gay Men's Happy Hour

But FYI -The Colony Hotel is closed until the end of October

Never been but I need to visit next time I go see my mother.

R2 - you definitely need to check it out. And don't worry about wearing the "uniform" I never do. Last time I went I wore white jeans and a navy linen button-up shirt and that worked just fine.

So everyone wears the same outfit, but it's not stuffy at all. Right.

R4 - in any gathering of gay men that's repetitive, they start dressing the same.

Sounds like a room of shaved pubes.

[quote] the average age is probably 55-60, everyone is wearing a navy blazer, pressed khakis, an Hermes tie and Gucci loafers

Yuck. That sounds like my idea of hell.

Who still wears navy blazers anymore?

It sounds charming.

R7 - sorry but not everyone wears hoodies. Navy blazers are still first choice in many places. Have you ever been to Nantucket?

"Who wears navy blazers anymore?" r7

Well to a gay bar, the guys in the navy blazers are usually the ones with terrible bodies.

R10 - it isn't a gay bar. The bar in the hotel is just taken over by gay men on Thursday night Happy Hour. The rest of the time the place is generally straight. It's also a beautiful, old school hotel as well, but if you aren't into Lily Pulitzer pink and green interiors you won't like it.

A lemon party for the waxed scrotum set.

This is a troll post.

There is no “navy blazer uniform.”

OP created this thread to denigrate Florida homosexuals. GET A FUCKING CLUE.

They do an excellent job themselves.

Yeah, I don't see any problem with denigrating regional gays.

If you love a piano, and are in the mood for seasoned cocks (‘n) tales, it can be a very friendly night.

There's no dress code except smart-casual. I'm usually overdressed as I go there straight from the Everglades up the road.

It's not taken all that seriously but it gives a nod to the older, bourgeois, waspsy gay fantasy. Drinks are way stiffer than the cocks.,

Isn't this where RHONY's Countess LuAnn had her breakdown and arrest?

Yes, yes it is. Sounds like a lot of good people watching.

Well OP - it's not advertised - but it's out there.

Aren’t all bars closed?

R6 and R12 thanks for the tips. The shaved pube and waxed scrotum set is fucking hot. Can’t wait to go

Sounds lovely - I fall into that age range and there are not a lot of options to socialize. While the Lily Pulitzer pant with navy blazer might be OTT, might be better that denim cut offs or a harness on a man of a certain age.

It's closed until Oct. Then, you wear your Bermuda shorts with your blazer.

R24 - that makes the shoe choice more dicey. Is a loafer still mandatory or can you risk a matching boating shoe?

Guccis with the Bermuda shorts and blazer.

OP here. Sorry R13 but you are wrong, I'm not a troll and I'm not trying to "denigrate Florida homosexuals". Perhaps the "uniform" I described is a bit of an exxageration as not everybody wears that (myself included). This post, I thought, was affectionate - as I stated, I've thoroughly enjoyed myself every time I've attended. I thought perhaps if anyone reading were visiting Palm Beach or nearby South Florida, they might like to check it out. In my opinion it is a far better experience than a typical gay bar.
