Building off of our earlier news that a few Kardashians (probably Kourtney Kardashian and her baby-daddy Scott Disick) are invading the Meet Rack tonight, we have confirmation from our sources at the Meet Rack that producers from the hit “reality” show would like to stop by.
“What it came down to is that, last night, they came in and said ‘Do you want to do a thing here? Sign here,'” Meet Rack owner Jim “God” Anderson said.
“Of course, I don’t watch television, I don’t have a cell phone, I don’t have a computer, I don’t have any of that stuff, but it was sort of like when Billy Gibbons came into my bar, everyone started jumping up and down, and I didn’t know who he was,” Anderson said.
In other words, he doesn’t quite care, he’s in it for the screen time.
Anderson tells The Range his favorite thing in the world is to have his picture taken (check the walls of his bar for proof), followed closely by gambling and sex, of course. What better for a hedonistic, self-loving, degenerate than 15 to 20 minutes of fame on cable TV?
I mean, it works for the Kardashian clan, after all.
Anderson’s only concern is that he’s might not have enough keychains to give away to folks; outside of that, he’s just interested in seeing what happens tonight.
If you’re interested in drinking with people who are famous for reasons that I don’t understand, show up at the Meet Rack between 7 and 9 p.m.; according to the producers of the show, the Meet Rack surmises they’ll have the show’s “stars” in there for about 20 minutes.
C’mon Tucson, let’s see if we can’t get a reality TV star branded with God’s face tonight.

Sigh, and this is what idiots the world over will know about Tucson. God and the Meat Rack. Visit Tucson must be horrified.
depressing worthless humans-
The meat rack rules! One of the best things about Tucson
While the ‘Meet Rack’ can certainly make it onto a list of the ‘Worst Dive Bars in the U.S.’ and is a horrific representation of Tucson, negative publicity is better than no publicity at all, I suppose. Millions of viewers throughout the world will hear ‘Tucson, AZ’ and the visual attached to it will be the ‘Meet Rack.’ The bar is colorful, dirty, only accepts cash, has no A/C (Hello, it’s Tucson?!?!?); in addition to that and many other things, the bar has an S & M room w/equipment that looks like it’s NEVER been cleaned, and the women’s restroom has a condom machine that is rigged to bells and sirens, so if you buy a condom and open the door to walk back into the bar, the spotlight is on you.
More than likely, it was Kourtney’s idea to go to the ‘Meet Rack,’ as it existed when she was a UA student, so she knows that it will get viewers talking. In 2002, Kourtney Kardashian graduated from The University of Arizona with a Bachelor of Arts – Major: Theater Arts. I always heard that she graduated from the UA’s Eller College of Management with a business degree, which would explain her business savvy, as she primarily runs the sisters’ ‘D-A-S-H’ stores and more.
I guess whomever tunes in will see how Tucsonans are portrayed to the rest of the world; hopefully, they won’t believe the hype.
As much as we don’t like it, bars like the Meet Rack and The Buffet are emblematic of Tucson. This city is a little dirty, rough around the edges, and mostly full of impoverished to lower middle class people. What better to represent a dive of a city than a dive of a bar?
I hope the production team finds a way to feature the public art/outdoor gallery of historic neon signs that were installed nearby. Those are pretty great.
did this debacle even occur?
Obviously barbara got a little too fucked up when she experienced the meet rack cause your sure as hell have gotten the tour with all that information about the meet rack.↑↑↑ Dont let this bad name I wont say↑↑↑ misinform you.
