The Panther Hollow Inn was the closest to campus and that was where CMU people hung out on Thursday nights to start the weekend. They made tasty Purple Hooters.
I lived in Shadyside the last 2 years. We would go to Joe’s, a dive bar in North Oakland to play pool and drink $1 Rolling Rocks.
Freshman year my room mate and i, both premed majors, volunteered at St Es hosp. We would always pass this bar on the bus back and once we decided we would go in an order drinks. Tom Collins [not a dead giveaway that we were underage drinkers] and we were served. it was tasty. we thought we were grown.
Paula said they were more lenient with hot women like us. LMAO! i know i didn’t have a fake ID, she thinks she might have, but i swear i don’t recall them being a thing at all back then.
