“El Paso Del Norte Bar” a Stockton California family owned skidrow bar filmed in the late 50’s. this home movie represents what Leonard Gardner’s Stocktons “Fat City” gritty,Skidrow was like in the Skidrow bars of the West End, with it’s blue colar and imigrant field labor patrons of the city..City Redevelopment has removed many or most of what was know as Stockton’s “Fat City” skidrow…
On June 16, 2012, Susan Tyrrell died, and then on June 28, the city of Stockton filed for bankruptcy. As the Fat City family tree withers, the memory of the book burns harder.
