    ISU Has Hockey But Not Baseball?

    Pretty much, haha...Though I can't imagine wrestling costs as much as baseball. I'm perfectly open to being wrong about that, but it just doesn't seem logical. Operating a baseball team and a ball field almost certainly has to be far more costly.

    ISU Has Hockey But Not Baseball?

    Absolutely not. I was still in Ames the year ISU killed the program and in the years leading up to that, I attended maybe a dozen games. My memory is a little fuzzy about it now, but I can't recall there being more than 20-50 people most of the time, if ever. It was really pathetic, honestly...

    In Other News - Regents Foresee Tuition Hike Next Year

    No doubt. This was big, big news when they started doing it when I was there back in the late 90s, and it caused a lot of protest. I recall a flier going around campus that was two naked guys screwing...The guy in back doing the screwing was labeled "REGENTS" or "ISU" depending on which...

    The Most Awesome/Stupid Thing You've Ever Done

    Oh man, Home Team was awesome...I don't know if they still have them, but I used to get this big frickin' pizza that was like two feet wide and it only cost like $6. It was massive, and came with half an inch of grease floating on top. Good stuff! :laugh: Ate a LOT of Pokey Stix too... Not...

    Top Five Ames Restaurants (with a poll)

    Kraina! Thanks a million! :notworthy: You wouldn't happen to remember what those stuffed bread things were called, would you? I LOVED the chicken one...They were so delicious. Man, that sucks. I knew they left but I never knew why I guess. Did they move to another location (I hope!), or...

    Your most embarrassing moments...

    I did the same thing for an engineering class during my second year. I was in my dorm room and my best friend who I met first year, and who lived next door, was in my room visiting. We had ordered pizza and were sitting around B.S.'ing, and I had this distinct nagging feeling that something...

    Greetings Folks...Long time reader, first time poster. :cool: This is slightly off-topic, but I need a little help remembering a restaurant name...I was at ISU from 1997 to 2001. When I was there, some co-workers and I used to go to a Serbian/Croatian restaurant up on Welch, right in that...
