Tom Brady’s week can be summed up best with a reference to eclectic director Quentin Tarantino’s latest film(s), the Kill Bills. In the movie Kill Bill Vol. 1, David Carradine’s character “Bill” finds his former cohort and lover, Uma Thurman’s character, Beatrice Kiddo (a.k.a., the Black Mamba, the most deadly woman in the world) in a small Midwestern town on the eve of her wedding. Beatrice, who has obviously left her former life as an assassin and relationship with Bill, was not looking to be found. She asks Bill, who conveniently shows up at her wedding rehearsal, “How did you find me? Bill responds simply “I’m the man.” Brady and the Pats provided a similarly emphatic response in their Sunday contest against the Buffalo Bills.
There are a couple things that Bostonist digs about The Littlest Bar. First off, you see the front facade of the place? It is really little, probably about 5 feet and some change. Secondly, its hours run from 8:30 AM to 1:30 AM, so there's no excuse to not get your drink on early. Quentin Tarantino was spotted there the last time he was in town. The bar is located in an area of Downtown Crossing where the interesting historical buildings belly up right next to the new Suffolk Law School monoliths. So if you get your drink on just enough, you can picture what Boston looked like in 1918. Finally, The Littlest Bar is quite little, technically it can fit about 40 people in its coffers, so you have to get there at the right time to enjoy a frothy pint. Located on 47 Province Street, which is a through-street in Downtown Crossing behind the giant Borders-that-used-to-be-a-bank. (You know, the one with the awful Irish Famine statue.)
