The History of Barden's

beware of pickpockets and loose women

In 1821, James Madison Andandersen of Norway came to Waseca to start a feed store. Instead of a feed store, he started a strip bar. One hundred years later, and Shane decided "no more strippin - this is a family joint", and the Barden's we know and love became reality. Awesome!

if you hear War Pigs, I am totally there
