full throttle saloon

Full Throttle Saloon claims to be the largest biker bar in the world. It is owned, and was created by, Mike Ballard in Sturgis South Dakota after he purchased the property in 1999. On peak nights during the Sturgis rally they boast serving 15,000 bikers each and every night, and to keep up with that demand they receive two full tractor trailer trucks of beer, delivered in the wee hours of the morning so they can get through the crowds. Beginning in 2009 Full Throttle Saloon also became a reality TV show on the Tru Network.
