The Rolling Stones, sans legendary drummer Charlie Watts, are currently touring across the US.
Last night, they played in Charlotte at the Bank of America Stadium, where the Carolina Panthers play.
The night before was a rare night off, and the one and only Mick Jagger was obviously keen for an incognito drink.
Celebrities must be so tired of being mobbed by fans everywhere they go, so he donned a hat and popped in at The Thirsty Beaver to try his luck.
I will avoid the hundreds of puns one could make regarding Jagger and the bar’s name.
Here’s Mick, enjoying a beer on the down low:

It appears that one group of friends was close to cracking the case, but not quite:
Last night, a group of friends at Thirsty Beaver were embroiled in a heated debate regarding whether some guy looked kind of like Mick Jagger.

Reporter Joe Bruno shared the same picture as Jagger, with some words from the bar’s co-owner:
Hang on, the bar owner’s name is Brian Wilson?
Just checked, and it’s not The Beach Boys founder. Damn.
It is still a very, very cool bar – one Twitter user said The Thirsty Beaver’s claim to fame is refusing to sell to developers.
It’s ended up being surrounded by apartment buildings, with locals comparing it to the house in the movie Up:
Legendary.
During the band’s performance, Jagger told the crowd that this was The Rolling Stones’ first tour without Watts in 59 years, dedicating the show to his memory.
