Some of may know each other. What years and dorm floors were you in at PSU?
- Thread starter RTLH

I think I remember the end of it - something like "God D%^& flim flam f*&^in' CHC "- but that's about it - am I close?

It was the Record Ranch, and there was Discount Records. That was back in the days of UCC. President of the Jazz Club was the head student and worked with the administration, I worked stage crew for most of the concerts from 73 through 77.
Man, I was going to ask if anyone attended our annual Blue/White Beaver Bash at Beaver Gardens from '05-'07, culminating with a 68 kegger the last year, but you guys were too busy swilling metamucil!
Don't believe so - there were places to either side, but The Gaff was on the second floor (had to go up the steps), but nothing above it. We used to go to different bars depending on the night, because they all had "quarter beer night" on a different night - The Saloon was one night, The Gaff, The Phyrst, etc...
PSUeng - Pretty safe bet we crossed paths. I didn't miss many of the house parties - the good old days when you could get kegs in the dorms. I was in 604 my first year (before you came in) and then 713 or 712 my 2nd year and 720 my last year in the dorms. I was CompSci but two of my best friends in the dorm were aerospace.
Lots of good times, quarters games and very drunk nights.
I was also stage crew 75 through 78. We were allowed backstage after Springsteen played, tried talking with him, and he basically said "f*^# off". Was throwing a football in REC Hall with Kansas roadies a couple hours before the show. Found out when Kansas came on stage that I had been running fly patterns down the aisles for the band.
I just laughed out loud and got smacked by my wife for waking her up. (I had to pee and it takes a while to get back to sleep.)
'07 grad.
Lived in Stuart Hall, 1st floor, 2003-04.
Then lived at Nittany Crossings and subsequently Copper Beech Townhomes.

There were two sections like that - one on the Fiji side and one on the quad side - what house/room number range?
I believe i was in 612 both years end of hall. Was John D. one of your friends. I can not think of the other Areospace major. Quarter Masters for those that got real good. Weekly Thursday parties and the girls form Stone! Tailgating with Greg Startzels (sp) hearse. Those were fun times.
If you played any basketball on the North Halls courts, the two of us definitely bumped into each other.
Fr. Year Shunk 1966-67 (303, I think), nittany 40 as a soph. Both yrs dined at Pollock Union. Off campus final 2 yrs. Sparks St., South Atherton at easterly Parkway, last term at Blue Bell.

I was in the Blue Band so I missed most of the tailgates. There was one game that was a late game (under temporary lights they brought in) and we were able to tailgate before the game. I participated in the tailgate too much and wasn't sure I would get through the pre-game show without failling on my butt.
John D. wasn't one of the guys I was talking about. I don't remember John by name. Dave and Grant were the two Aerospace majors I mentioned. They were up on the 7th floor. I remember Greg. I think it was Greg that lost a bet and had his head shaved. I also remember waking up on game day mornings to guys pounding on every door yelling "What time is it? It's beat <current opponent> time!". "Rapper's Delight" was played in the dorm way too often.
Definitely good times...
