OMG I can't believe I forgot about that damn Gumby's! My roommates always used to order that stuff. The crust was like Goodyear rubber.
As far as clubs go, it is hard to say because clubs in Tallahassee change names like every other week! It is crazy. Of course we used to go to the Moon, the Garden was a no-no (LOL did you know it is a dance studio in the day time?), they used to have this poetry joint on wednesday nights at Sloppy Joes that was really nice. Most of all we used to go to greek parties that were held at restaraunts like, the Alpha's had a party at Red Lobster on Monroe that was absolutely the bomb, they had a live band and everything, Kappas used to have parties at Lucy Ho's (Theta Eta) and Sloppy Joe's or the house (Alpha Xi). I went to an AKA party at the mexican restaraunt on Monroe ( I can't believe I forgot the name, that place was the bomb) it was on the corner of Monroe and Tharpe ( I lived in Jefferson Commons on Tharpe). Speaking of which, I was in JC the very first year it opened and it was party central!
Y'all know what I really miss about Tally? 50 cent movie night at the dollar movie!! We don't even have a dollar movie here. Another thing for those famuans, all of the fashion shows, on the set, homecoming, epicurean shows, etc. If you are still a famuan or living in Tally, enjoy all of these things, because I tell you, I hated Tally when I was there, but I miss them now.

Narcolept... You are bringing back sooooooooooo many college memories for me. I'm a grad. of FA MU and you know ain't no party like a FAMU party!! I remember freshman year my girlfriends and I made the mistake of going to a party @ the Garden...need I say more! We also attended a disastores party @ the patch! I remember Skinners (the chicken place) walking down the hill to go there. That places name has changed sooooo many times.Of course everyone hung out for "Grown Folks Night" @ the Moon! I also remeber Club Hollywood (can't remember the location) they had phones on all of the numbered tables so you could call one anothers table and get your mack on.

HA!
Boy those where the good ole days. Okay back to the topic @ hand.

Of course I got my GUT BOX W/SAUCE!!

loved BW3's

Krystals was a quick stop after the club

and...

Steak and Shake was cheap and awful..but the shakes were good

I didn't like Rally's and there Kangaroo meat..LoL.. but I liked there Banana Shakes

to this day I don't eat Shoney's for every road trip the schools dance company I performed w/(FAMU's Orchesis Contempary Dance Theater) would stop and eat there!

You haven't lived till you had a Griff burger. It just does something to you But their fries were slamming. You had to get while they were still hot. otherwise that didn't taste all that hot.

noooooooooooo, you didn't go there! GRIFF'S! Yes indoggone deed! YOU WENT THERE!

Griff's was the ONLY place to go late at night.

It was the ONLY place open after a party, other than Taco Bell. That place is STILL open. I used to live in Tech Station (right behind Popeye's), which wasn't too far from Griff's.

AKA2D '91 · #35 05-13-2003, 01:06 PM

A Griff's FRANCHISE?

I wish I would have known that. I was in Dallas at the end of March!

Oh my word!

i can't believe i left Cici's off the list. $2.99 all you can eat pizza buffet. Stale pizza, cheap salad, and all the bread you can eat. but it was a BLESSING to us back in the day! You talking about being hungry after band practice and broke because you don't have time to work (uhh - HBCU band IS a job

) ?!?!

narcolept · #37 05-13-2003, 04:00 PM

Blutang- when you mentioned bread it made me remember FAZOLI'S! When I was at FAM, I loved going to Fazoli's. They have the best breadstick out there. Now their sauces for the pasta was a bit on the watery side, but the bread made up for it. We don't have a Fazoli's here.

I like to hit up The City Cafe over on Old National when I'm in Atlanta and the Huddle House in Ft. Vallely during Homecoming at FVSU. When I'm really broke, I head to my kitchen and open up a can of pottish meat and some saltine crackers or maybe even a can of vienna sausages....sad but true.

narcolept · #39 05-14-2003, 04:00 PM

pottish meat?

AKA2D '91 · #40 05-15-2003, 01:17 PM

pottish meat or POTTED meat?

LMAO

I don't think you REALLY want to know its ingredients.

If it's potted meat, it's like ground up vienna sausages packed in a smaller vienna sausage container.

SkeeWee14 · #41 05-15-2003, 09:26 PM

Ohhhh did I say Pottish Meat? LOL...y'all know what I meant. It was late and I was hungry so the mind wasn't working right. Come to think of it, I don't want to know the ingredients either, but whatever they are they sure do come together to make a decent snack.

narcolept · #42 05-15-2003, 10:32 PM

You meant, like Spam. I was going, "what in the world is pottish meat?" I thought it was a regional thing or something. LOL
For those people in Tallahasse, have you ever eaten at a restaraunt called Ferrell's? They have soul food. I used to love their mixed vegetables. Then right across the street from fam was Olean's. A lot of people went there, but my parents came up to visit once and they didn't care for their food much. My favorite on campus meal was a cheesesteak sandwich, curly fries, and a fruit punch from the orange room.

eager2learn · #43 05-16-2003, 09:49 AM

Okay, if you are broke and need something quick on a late night......TACO BELL.......open until 3am.

If you don't really do the taco thing, but you are still broke and it's late...........RALLY'S.........open until 3am.

If Rally's doesn't hit the spot for you, and you don't wait until 2:50am to decide you are hungry..........BURGER KING or WENDY's..............open until 1am.

If you have a little money in your pocet..............BW3s.

If you are leaving the KAY party and need to satisfy your hunger and get entertained from all the other people that went to the party..............WAFFLE HOUSE or DENNY'S.

Oh, and for those fine occasions such as birthdays or other special events.............APPLEBEE'S.

librasoul22 · #44 05-19-2003, 12:31 PM

I know one thing y'all. When that financial aid kicks in on Wednesday I MUST go to Wing Zone, lol. I have been craving it since we talked about it here but I can't afford such luxuries right now, lol.

BLUTANG · #45 05-19-2003, 12:34 PM

you all are making me want to hit those Tally spots when i vist again in September!
