Polekatz NWI

9148 Melton Road Gary, IN 46403-3136

If you’re doing a guys trip, you need to do it right and include a trip to the ballet. While the two closest ones are about 30 minutes away, it might be worth an uber just in case. Polekatz is a popular crowd favorite.

This place is massive and has a lot to offer. Another 30 minute trip, but worth it during a degenerate guys trip. Apparently they do some wild stuff, like mashed potato wrestling…if that’s what you’re into. (weirdo)

  1. Golf was good, the downtown area is really nice with a lot of options. Strip clubs are a little far, but not too bad. Four Winds casino isn’t great. They have a weird 40 minute per drink limit and are pretty stiff unfun as an organization.
