Bars We Love: Tough Luck Club, Tucson (Playboy.com)

According to the sign behind the bar at Tough Luck Club, if you ain’t partying, you’re loitering. That’s why you’ll spot just as many people pounding Jägermeister shots in this underground Tucson, Arizona, bar as people sipping on Jäger-Aperol highballs. The bar somehow has the feel of both a dive and a speakeasy.
