One fateful Sunday afternoon in May of 1975, Steve proclaimed,  Hey, I m gonna open a bar. Stan said,  I know where there s a two-story building for rent. I ll go partners with you! Within minutes, these two wild and crazy guys had agreed to rent the building at 501 W. Elm.</p> <p align="left">Steve came up with the name Eskimo Joe s and Bill Thompson, a freshman art student, drew the famous logo with a magic marker.  I loved it the second I saw it! Stan says. And so, Eskimo Joe and Buffy were born.</p> <p align="left">Eskimo Joe s opened July 21, 1975 serving ice-cold beer, red-hot music, and great-big smiles on both proprietors faces and on the front of the 72 t-shirts available for sale on day one. In the beginning, Joe s shirts were sold behind the bar. The first shirts sold out in a week, and became so popular that the wait staff could no longer keep up with the demand. That popularity continues to the present day.</p> <p align="left">In the years since 1975, Eskimo Joe s has reached out and supported the community in numerous ways. One of those is by supporting breast health awareness and screening in Oklahoma women in need. To that end, Joe s sells merchandise with the pink ribbon logo and donates a portion of those sales each year to Project Woman Coalition, a small non-profit located in Central Oklahoma.</p> <p align="left">In 2002, Stan Clark, owner of Eskimo Joe s was awarded the Corporate Breast Cancer Companion award given annually to those individuals and corporations that go above and beyond in helping with this important cause.
