PITTSBURGH — George Martin has been serving up drinks for more than 50 years and is said to be the oldest – and most entertaining – bartender in America.
Everyone at the Elks Lodge #339 in Pittsburgh’s Northside neighborhood knows Martin. He is the regular Friday night bartender.
Martin’s secret to living a long life while still working, he said, is dating. Others in the bar said he is now a ladies’ man since his wife died.
But on this Friday night, Martin served up 92 drinks to celebrate his 92nd birthday.
He was recognized Friday with a city proclamation as “Mr. Entertainment.”
