re: OT - CFA Downtown Athens

We used to go down down Athens cause it was cheap. My kid who just graduated from there says $50is an average night. Seems like $10 was a normal night when I was there, but down town was all seedy bars.

Choo Choos is still alive and well. Servicing all the late night degenerates like a lighthouse on the cliff of THC.

Choo choo is one of the all time goat restaurants when you wake up hungover as frick and hit the bowl and need some cheap food immediately.

I never heard of choo choo. What you described is what Taco Stand was for me and my ilk.

This was my pattern. Best was when you called them in the van back home and had Choo Choos almost instantly.

When did it open? I can’t find opening date online. Im pretty sure that block of buildings didn’t exist when I was in school. Although I did live there much longer after that so it’s weird I never heard of it.

I rarely went over there though, in the last ten years. Tires Plus, Blind Pig, and CFA are all I ever went over there for. My wife was in the new vet school over there, she’s probably heard of it. Hell, she brought home so much takeout those years I’ve probably eaten it.

Peter, you can still have a night out with $20 but you are drinking shite beer and you need bartender buddies to hook you up with random shots.

I remember the $5 pitchers all over town, through dirty tap lines that would give you the shits. Ten bucks was more than enough to get drunk and burpy. Throw in a couple of warm hot-whiskey shots, somebody is gonna puke.

Don’t think I don’t remember what you tried to do to me at Caledonia 5 years ago.
