re: Starkville

The idiot OP complained about the variety of food choices in the Student Union????

Mississippi State On-Campus non-cafeteria Dining
-----------
Burger King
Subway
Chick-fil-A
Zoca (mexican)
Toss it Up (salads)
Panda Express
Mississippi Steak (cheesesteaks)
Village Pizza
Einstein Bros. Bagels
Freshens
Pizza Hut
State Fountain Bakery
Starbucks

Alabama on-campus non-cafeteria dining
---------
Buffalo Phils
Dunkin DOnuts
Bama Cabana
Subway
Starbucks
Topios Pizza
Burger King
Chick-fil-A
Pan Geos (salads)
Greek Eats
Zoca (mexican)
Boars Head
Pizza Hut

State has a Panda Express, Bama has a Greek place - otherwise pretty similar.


The Taste of the Town segment was very complimentary of the food scene in Starkville. If you have been in the last 10 years and not just relied on what you have heard or are trying to be cool by making fun of a small Mississippi town, you know this.

I think the OP needs some Muscadine Ripple.

He needs to be signed up to the cheese of the month list from State. If that can't turn him nothing will.

So you're complaining about food and you ate at the student union? And left after the game? So you didn't bother to go downtown where the good restaurants are, or go check out the bars after the game? Sounds like your shitty experience was your own fault, not the towns fault

I know I'm nitpicking but you left off quite a few on campus eateries for Tuscaloosa:

Chipotle
Surin Thai
another Thai place I can't remember now
Waffle House
Steamers
Moe's Southwest Grille
Guthries
TCBY
Marble Slab Creamery
Hale's Tavern
Tuts
Zoe's Kitchen
Rama Jammas
Newks

and a couple I'm probably missing

How can you leave off BENTO!??!?!

A stip mall on 15th and McFarland is not "on-campus" But that's typical - the Alabama sidewalk alums probably consider Home Depot on campus.

That list came straight from the UA Ferguson Center website.

Sounds like your pissed about the shitty game and taking all of your anger out on the town in which it was played in.

Not to hijack this thread with facts, but in theory, Starkville should be a lot like Auburn and similar size cities with large land grant universities.

The problem was, prior to 1999, the entire Starkville City Government was anti-university. They literally did everything to spite MSU and would not work together on any partnership agreements that would benefit MSU and Starkville. So the 80s/90s jokes about Starkville were truly warranted. It was a shite hole in 1995 when I started.

Students got a voice on the City Council in 1999, and a few years later, elected a 28-year old alum that went to UNC Chapel Hill for law school mayor. Now you have young alums that want to stay and make Starkville better and that's why you see things getting better, much to the annoyance of old money Starkville.
