The Juke Joint was Grunkle Stan's favorite 50's themed 1970's diner, and he enjoyed dining and dancing there with his ex-girlfriend, Carla "Hot Pants" McCorkle.
History
The history of the Juke Joint has not been revealed in the series fully. The only known history of the place is that it was constructed sometime in the mid-late 60's or early 70's.
Stan and Carla frequented the joint when Stan was still a young man where they'd engage in 50's styled dancing. On one of these nights a hippie named, Thistle Downe set up shop and played a show called, "Dimensional Healing with Thistle Downe." The music captivated Carla, and according to Stan, was hypnotized into leaving him and dating Thistle. Stan said her hot pants turned into bell bottoms before the new couple shot into the air, leaving behind a trail of rainbow and sparkles. Admittedly, that last bit was more likely a hallucination then not.
