I’m happy some one has reviewed this place. I remember seeing the awesome neon lights of The Humdinger as a child and wondering what the hell this place was. The neon sign has since burned out and there is now a wooden sign under it that says baille y musica(dance and music). I asked a bunch of Garden Grove natives and they told me it used to be a Pasty/Go go bar(sounds pretty cool to me). Some time last year I asked my cousin to pick me up from Paul’s cocktails(I was living in garden grove) as we where driving by the Humdinger I told him we should stop and check it out. As we walked through the parking lot we where acknowledged by a man urinating on a wall. The man was dressed in ostrich boots with an ostrich belt wearing a huge cowboy hat. We walk in to see a bunch of dudes dressed in cowboy/gaucho attire dancing with the waitresses to banda and ranchera music. I was pretty hammered. Me and my cousin look at each other and kinda laugh. A waitress approaches me and asks me if i would like a beer. I take her up on her offer and order some sort of Mexican beer. The waitress then asks if i would like to dance with her. I decline. I pound my beer and leave. Very interesting place. Happy I went to check it out. My cousin still takes people here for shock value. This place is a bit sketchy. According to my cousin there are fights here often.

So, it was a saturday night and me and a couple buddies were next door to this place having a couple pupusas at flor blanca and heard a strange beat… 1…2…1…2…1…2 walls were shaking… ground was vibrating then we heard some yelling… ay yay yay! never fearing any establishment that can dish up a cold beer, we decided to checkout the old humdinger. we were greeted at the door by the well bellied security guard who felt us up for weapons i assumed. the place is quite small inside, was completely packed and smelled of a blend of ford trucks and grass clippings. they had a live band playing some sort of thumpy thumpy messican music and i think every guy in the place was wearing a white t-shirt. 1 positive note(hence the 2 stars) a hideous waitress hit on my small asian friend in broken english and rubbed her crotch on his knee while doing it. — the star is for the laughs we get out of it now… nothing more.
