You might miss it if driving down Navarro Street, you&#8217;d see the Nix Medical Building which takes up a good portion of the block, but at the end of the building is a sign and door advertising Dick. You wouldn&#8217;t miss it by its more popular entrance along the Riverwalk. Advertising &#8216;Dick&#8217; is everywhere; bar maid t-shirts stating; &#8216;they&#8217;ve got Hooters, we&#8217;ve got Dick&#8217;, &#8216;I need a stiff one&#8217;, and simply &#8216;I &#8220;heart&#8221; Dick&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, if you don&#8217;t love Dick, don&#8217;t be afraid to just say so. The motto of this place is simply just be &#8216;rude&#8217;. That&#8217;s right. Never say &#8216;please&#8217; and don&#8217;t take offense to what is said to you\u2026if you&#8217;re quick with the wit, you may even get your drink free. Order a steak medium-rare and you might just be told; &#8216;maybe, we&#8217;ll see, won&#8217;t make any promises&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s all in good fun, but I could see where it might be a little confusing for someone who wasn&#8217;t expecting this approach. But Dicks San Antonio is embroiled in confusion. The Nix building itself has a confusing history. Research it if you&#8217;re really interested, but for starters it starts with two brothers; Joe M. Nix and Joe J. Nix and a son Joe L. Nix. I guess this was the inspiration for George Foreman who named each of his five sons George. Got you beat there Joe Nix, but what did you expect? George was a Champ.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/dicksontheright.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-631\" src=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/dicksontheright.jpg\" alt=\"dicksontheright\" width=\"525\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/dicksontheright.jpg 525w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/dicksontheright-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/dicksontheright-195x130.jpg 195w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-square_smaller wp-image-555\" src=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-70x70.jpg\" alt=\"bbbh\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-70x70.jpg 70w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-130x130.jpg 130w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 70px) 100vw, 70px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dick&#8217;s Last Resort is a chain of restaurant\/bars across the U.S. The San Antonio location is in the basement (and former morgue) of the historic Nix Hospital.
