The Coyote Ugly Saloon is an American drinking establishment and the namesake of a national chain of bars. It served as the setting for the 2000 movie ''Coyote Ugly''. ==History== The original Coyote Ugly Saloon opened January 27, 1993, in New York City, after New York University alumna Liliana Lovell declined an internship on Wall Street for a career as a bartender.〔("Coyote Ugly" ), New York City Bartenders & Patrons, Accessed May 7, 2008.〕 Lovell held several bartending jobs during college and perfected a routine of dancing on the bar, singing, and challenging customers to drinking contests. Applying a business model learned from her former boss, Tom McNeill,〔 she began hiring young women and training them in the wild routine, which included such antics as chugging alcohol, setting light to it, then breathing fire. While some women were good at singing, others good at dancing, and others good at yelling, Lovell found that not all the women were talented in each of the three aspects, so she often paired women with complementary abilities. In 2001, the second Coyote Ugly Saloon opened in Las Vegas at the New York-New York Hotel & Casino, as a franchise operation.〔 In 2002, a new company-owned bar opened in New Orleans, Louisiana's French Quarter. In 2003, Lovell relocated from New York City to New Orleans, and is today primarily involved in the day-to-day corporate operations of the company from there. In June 2009 the first new Coyote Ugly in three years opened in Oklahoma City.〔(Oklahoma City appeals to ‘Coyotes’ at new Bricktown bar )〕 In 2005, the Coyote Ugly expanded to Europe opening two new locations in Germany and one in Moscow, Russia in November 2009. Since then new bars in Milwaukee, Key West and San Diego, along with a further four bars in Russia and one in Romania have opened. This brings the number to 22 in the chain today. The newest USA location opened in San Diego, CA on February 5, 2014. The fifth bar in Russia opened in Novosibirsk on October 3, 2012. The first bar in Romania opened in Constanta on October 11, 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coyote Ugly Saloon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
