Lone Star Saloon

San Francisco, CA

The opening of the Lone Star Saloon in San Francisco in 1989 is viewed by many as the most significant event in establishing the bear community. Known as "Bear Bar U.S.A." -- and for some people as mecca -- gay men tell stories of visiting the bar and for the first time seeing men who looked as they did.
