have very found memories of the greenary. What a dump, but lots of good times.

Late 70's regularly went to all the places listed, but our favorite hangout was the Alamo which is still there.   That's when well drinks were 50 cents and calls were 75 cents.  Man, I miss those days.

Nightlife around campus has been in decline for years. 

Younger fans won't know these names:

Empty keg 

Greenery

The Claw restaurant (really)

CDB's

Copper Top

Montana's 

Kasey's Cove

Bennigans

Fridays

The Brickyard (I think that was the name, current Acropolis)

All those places at one point in time were around campus and drew in students, all gone. 

The only improvement, Mr Dunderbaks moving from the mall to their current location.

Didn't do Montana's, but visited all the rest along with Robiconti's, 42nd Street Station, Sea Wolf, Proud Lion Pub and more...

I have some good memories there involving  hanging with the boys and some others involving girls. That and the ua hangout and tia tips were always the best night spots.

Proud Lion Pub's last owner was Johnny G Lyon, who sits across the aisle from me at men's basketball.

Cool.  Was more used to seeing him at MacDinton's back in the day.

He still plays. I keep trying to catch a show, it has been a while for me. 

I never went to the Proud Lion until he bought it, and I would guess he had it for a couple years before it closed. It was a cool place, but in my opinion, the location didn't help. 

He loves, loves, loves USF MBB.

All the ACC needs is ND to finally join in Football and they are stabilized as a top 3 conference, with B12 a distant 4th. I'm having serious doubts that Clemson even wants to leave. All this speculation always comes from B12 homers wishfully thinking out loud. ND joining would net them a great TV deal that everyone would be happy with. Unfortunately, that would probably mean USF does not get invited to the ACC. However, the Big 12 would definitely not think twice at adding to their profile in Florida. Plus... war on I4.

I have a feeling that once FSU is done throwing a tantrum, they'll realize that the ACC is actually their best shot with the expanded 12-team playoff. Also considering that the SEC doesn't need them and the B1G wouldn't want to have another non-AAU Nebraska type team bringing down their academic profile. At least Nebraska was AAU when they joined.
