Birmingham, Alabama, with 2. Alabama, home to Birmingham, has made news lately as its state Supreme Court has resisted implementation of a federal court order to allow same-sex couples to marry.

But by inverting stereotypes and cranking out elevated pub fare like nachos, wings, and a pork chop on a stick, Hi-Tops quickly became the place to watch the Warriors or the 49ers on a very large array of flatscreens. Getting tipsy for the community is a win-win.
There are tri-tip tacos and deep-fried bourbon shots. Cabaret shows, drag spectaculars, mashup dance parties, live musical acts, and more. It is, in a word, fabulous.
