What happens when a golf shop thinks beyond golf

You walk into the golf shop looking for a new polo. You walk out with a pair of jeans, a $150 sweatshirt in August or a mahjong set. At most golf clubs, that might raise a few eyebrows. But at Arizona Country Club in Phoenix, it's all part of the plan.

Mr. Lucky's was the king of clubs in Phoenix. What happened to it?

It was October 1966 when Mr. Lucky’s opened for business on Grand Avenue in west Phoenix, a two-story honky-tonk that soon became one of the Valley's most beloved music venues, affectionately called the king of clubs. The main floor hosted country music royalty, from Waylon and Willie to George Jones and Jerry Lee Lewis, with rock acts relegated to the basement. Sixty years later, the club’s iconic Vegas-worthy neon sign — a grinning jester — hasn't stopped towering high above bypassing traffic from its 50-foot perch at Grand and 37 th avenues. The bells are missing from the faded jester's hat and the little rectangular boxes that once promised cocktails and dancing appear to have been shot out or otherwise vandalized beyond repair. The dice that once hung from the bottom of the sign have also gone missing. The building itself is now home to Mr. Z Towing, which runs an impound facility for the Arizona Department of Public Safety in the parking lot, surrounded on either side by used car dealerships. J. David Sloan sang country at the helm of Mr. Lucky's house bands, first the Rogues, then Western Bred. In 1988, he bought the bar from original owner
