I fail to see how saying Cowboys is a dump makes anyone a hypocrite. Several posters have said they like it and quite a few have said they think it is a dump. Big deal. If you like to go there then good for you but don't pretend like you think the place is the classiest night club in town.
I don't know how someone can be a hypocrite for calling a place a dump. I think the Back Alley is a dump too, so what? At least when I go to the Back Alley everyone there knows it is a dump and appreciates it for the dump that it is.
If I was a hypocrite wouldn't that mean that secretly I think the place is beautiful? I don't think you know what hypocrite means, if you do then you are using the term incorrectly.
In fact I don't think anyone has said that people shouldn't be allowed to go to Cowboys or are losers if they do go, most of the discussion has been about the overall city/country wide perception of the place as being not a dump, when in reality it is. I for one don't care if people like Cowboys, I do however think they are losers if they think it is "the place to be" because it just isn't. It is a trashy, hick bar. There isn't anything wrong with that if you recognize it for what it is.
Take Ranchman's for example too. That place knows it is a trashy hick bar. I have been there 2 or 3 times and every time I've enjoyed it but I wouldn't tell anyone I was part of the center of Calgary nightlife just because I go to Ranchman's.
