All these. Savannah Joes predated Rafters. Now it’s some office. Still breaks my heart.

Oh, and Cottonwood was once called Tumbleweed, but they had to change their name due to copyright, or something like that. It’s been a looonnnng time, so I don’t remember the whole story.

Rafters - Penny or nickel draft nights. Not sure which it was but I was there.
Cottonwood - Thursday afternoon meet up spot back in the day with friends after class at Raley. Frostbite would sneak up on you.
Murphys - Many a game of pool. Speaking of Jamie Pressley, that's where I saw her when she was in town.
Klondike - 5 of 5 on the Klondike test. Miss that place. Ice cold domestic on a sunny afternoon was the life.

Comedy zone at Genos was always a good time.

We tried to schedule classes so as to be done early enough on Friday to be able to get to Holly’s early enough to secure a spot at the big table. If I recall cheap beer, hot dogs and an incredible view out the back.

Holly’s back deck on Friday afternoons in April once the weather starting warming up?

Simply magical.

A great spring day after an awful winter was always a special treat, especially with some cold beers.

Klondike checklist:

- Ate the buffalo chicken wrap at the outside bar on a summer afternoon
- Played foosball/golden tee
- Danced on the fireplace
- Hung out in the parking lot on a Thursday because it was too hot inside
- Used the outdoor facilities

Scored 3 or higher we can hang out, all 5 I hope you married well and she's been a good influence.
Not only did I score 5/5 on your list, but I met my now wife at Klondike. We joke we’re the only relationship to begin there that lasted for more than 24 hours
Scored 5/5 as well. Also met my wife there! Time well spent!

LOL, I met my wife there when we were in college, but didn't start dating until 3 years later. I'm pretty sure you introduced me to your wife there.
I have a very hazy recollection of the evening…
