This thread is something!

Gotta say I am enjoying the memories shared and as a student in the mid to late 80s I recall some of the same ones. 3 hot dogs for a buck was a staple for us back then. As far as the BI is concerned, my favorite line was written on the wall of a bathrooms stall on the 4th floor of Bowie Hall in 1984: “Flush twice, its a long way to the BI”. Lol. About sums it up!
The BI had to keep the "Wheel of Death" loaded

I used to load the wheel of death with ham melts, and reubens, then made the tea to wash it down.

Was in the BI late one night with a girl and she asked the dude loading the wheel what spices were on the spicy chicken- reply...”hell I don’t know, salt and pepper” classic. Over 30 years and I still laugh about that.

I thought I was patient, I really did. But waiting on our final coach announcement is excruciating. Coach Drink, help a brother out! GO APPS!!

Just like last year, they’ll talk their smack until August, and then start putting together their list of excuses and claim if we don’t beat them by 50 we should consider it a loss. So pathetic.

I'm sure they'll be able to take over Applebees or Ruby Tuesdays, or some other chain restaurant so they can feel right at home.

Boone doesn’t have any train tracks. It’s going to be very confusing for them to navigate...

Started out washing dishes in cafeteria. Then promoted to salad bar and drink bar. Then promoted to grill cook where I learned to dip chicken livers out of a 5 gallon pail, roll them in flour and fry them up. Can’t imagine they were in high demand, except for with professors maybe. Hope I got them done?

There are only a few open starting slots , yes I know there will be competition at every postion , but based on the line up at years end.Corner is an issue but I think we have guys ready to cover it.Get it ?Would not be surprised to see some RFr push some of the older guys, in fact expect it.Z Hayes at LB for instance .Peoples at RB ,Evans to the slot? Virg and Sutton on the field at the same time.Speed kills.
