Nap's - The Best Bar in the Mission, So Far

We went to Nap's on Thursday, total fluke, wasn't even supposed to be out that late. A regular and his friend (Barry/Bear) the bartender M-Th were outside checking out the action on the street and enticing customers to check the bar out that night (business was slow that night thanks to parties at the flanking bars El Rio and another place where there was a UC Berkeley sponsored party). The regular said he'd buy our first round of drinks, we were confused, but realized he was totally sincere. The bartender, bear/barry, also provided us with several rounds of drinks/shots. I didn't even know these guys! Talk about good luck and good company. Barry/Bear, we'll call him Bar from now on, made great conversation about the history of the mission as he'd been there his whole 45 years of living. His preferred drink was jack daniels shots and I also had my first shot of fernet's luxorda (sp?) whereas at most bars I'm usually drinking fernet's branca...

There was also a 5 car accident that invovled a drunk driver and a taxi among others, such as parked cars, on mission street in front of Nap's it was interesting to see all the police activities.
