"Booze and Strippers Separating Them Defies Natural Law". "Vaseline Alley: A Sampler of Downtown's Gay Bars".
Dancers often were costumed as angels, businessmen, construction workers, cowboys, police officers, or United Parcel Service (UPS) delivery men. The Portland Mercury described it as an "institution of stiff drinks and stiffer male dancers", where "hot men perform theatrical and acrobatic stripteases on stage, then get naked and wag their penises in your face". The bar was located at 1125 Southwest Stark Street and featured an all-male nude revue, a dance floor, and shows. The couple were survived by their three daughters, one of whom, Sotiria "Sandra" Katsavopoulos, along with her husband Athanasios "Saki" Katsavopoulos, acquired ownership and began catering to Portland's gay community, eventually turning Three Sisters into a gay bar and strip club. Katchis and his wife Georgia owned and operated the business until his death four months later (1964) and her death in 1997. Three Sisters Tavern opened in 1964 as a family business. The building once housed Three Sisters Tavern in the space now occupied by Scandals, a gay bar. The corner of Southwest 12th Avenue and Stark Street in 2015.
