AUJarhead 70 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Things that I miss, simply because I'm not there: Guthries Niffers The Supper Club Things that are gone: Flush Tiger Time Harry's Planet X I miss all my friends, but that's why Auburn Football games mean so much, it's always a reunion of sorts. It's more than football, it's family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bammanmr 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Experimenting with new drinks at Aubie's 141656[/snapback] Yeah!!! Now THOSE were good times! Tiger's cage, The flush &Tiger Time, naturally. Parties at the Blue House. The fact that it was a SMALL town. Walking to the bars, stumbling home, and not ever getting harrassed by the cops for doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAG-91 1,483 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 I'm not sure I'd even recognize parts of Auburn now...haven't been there since 1997. I miss: * The Flush. * Going to Harry's after everything else was closed and coming out to a bright sunrise...that's when you know you've been out a loooong time. * Guthrie's...one of my good friends swore that it was a surefire cure for a hangover. * The Strutting Duck...hard to beat 75 cent beer certain days of the week. * Going to Chewacla in the spring/summer...find a spot to stretch out, listen to the Walk-man and just fade into oblivion for a couple of hours. * Getting a lemonade at Toomer's either coming or going from class...I lived on Magnolia for 3 years. * Night games at Jordan-Hare...or any games at Jordan-Hare, for that matter...haven't made it back for one since 1991. * Intramurals...softball season was always loads of fun. * Mate Selection and Marital Interaction...easiest class (outside of P.E.) EV-ER. * Free movies at Langdon Hall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny AU-92 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 I miss Tiger Time a lot. Nothing like a Scramble Dog at TT at about 2:00 am. Anybody else remember what was in that? Don't even get me started on The Flush. The first date I ever went on at Auburn was to the Flush for a cone. The guy turned out to be a goober, but still, it was special. I have a watercolor print of the Flush in my office. I LOVED Free Movie. My favorite two were Animal House and The Blues Brothers. EVERYBODY knew all the words and we all played along... I miss the way it felt to walk on campus on a beautiful spring day - no humidity, brilliant cloudless blue sky, cool breeze... *sniff* I used to take my dog to Chewacla to play in the creeks and stuff. And my first love proposed to me under the oaks in front of Sanford Hall. He was the first guy I ever fell totally head over heels completely in love with, and he loved me back with jsut as much intensity. We never got married - long story but it was definitely for the best, altho it nearly killed us both at the time - but he was my heart's true love and always will be a special part of my memories of my time at Auburn. So I guess I miss the way it felt to be young and madly in love at Auburn - young, dumb and stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUJarhead 70 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Was the Strutting Duck the one over by Kroger and Turtles on Dean, right by Glenn? I worked at that Turtles when it became Blockbuster Music. If it's the place I'm thinking of, Wednesday nights during winter quarter, they had all you can eat crawfish for 9 or 10 bucks. I sware, I'd go up there at 6, and they'd have to kick me out. The only bad thing about this past football season was discovering that Harry's is gone. Harry's used to have the BEST bar shirts. "Where the Elite Meet" and "Proverbs 31:7" are my all time favorite college bar t-shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a ton of high school friends who lived in that place and we called it Little Wadley after our hometown. I also miss Camel Riders from Momma G's.

texaubie 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 All the above I missed but do you remember as a guy walking to class and seeing all the beautiful girls. I've not seen such a plethora of talent before or since. I'm blessed that a few of them would actually go out with me over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 I met my future wife at Auburn in 83'. Graduated, married her and have been with her ever since. I took the only thing out of there I really wanted besides my education. Okay, also miss the Supper Club, The Flush and Chewacla State Park.

SupperClub 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Okay, also miss the Supper Club... 141789[/snapback] I, like some of you, miss Harry's. My friends and I lost so much money on that stupid video poker machine they had in the corner I could still almost cry. I miss the view from the concourse, Momma G's, poker night, Cell 11 at the City Police Station...ok, wait a minute, maybe I don't miss that one. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUJarhead 70 Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 On Senifeld one night, they were talking about the "Bermuda Triangle" of restaurant locations. How you drive by one day, and it's something else, no trace of the old restaurant. The Duck II was in one of those locations. It later closed and became Plainsman Pub. Which is now a paint store.
