Who is your favorite character on the show "Cheers?" For me, it was always Norm. he is the regular who practically lives at the bar. This is something I can relate to when it comes to visiting the Rustic Hut in Florence, MT. For years now, I always seem to find myself stopping at "The Hut" for an adult beverage. There always seems to be someone who, as the song lyrics for Cheers say, "knows your name." There is always something happening too. Whether it be Trivia on Tuesdays Karaoke on Wednesdays or even Live music on the weekends.

Just recently the Rustic Hut in Florence has gotten a major upgrade. What used to e just a honky tonk style venue, will soon become a full-blown music venue.
