Paddy's and Sips seem to be having problems

I have no problem with disgusting college bar bathrooms, but Cy's takes it to a new level. That bar used to be cool and have character, now it's just a crap hole.

Looks like Es Tas is next in line. Good lord

I really liked Es Tas, until I ordered a taco at 2 a.m. and it had a toothpick in it.

Last time I was in those two bars was two years ago for homecoming. My buddy and I walked into Paddy's and I immediately lost a shoe because it stuck to the ground. We decided at that point we would leave after my buddy went to the restroom. He got passed by a large rat as he walked in. Haven't had much of a desire to relive my college times in the bar since!!

I was most upset that I didn't find it until I'd already eaten half of the taco!

I'm sure it was one of those sammich garnish toothpicks, right?

I've never had a good experience at Paddy's or Sips, but that's just me... As for Cy's roost. Went there last week with one of my friends from back home for FAC. We walked in and the whole place smelled of a high school guys locker room. It's like they just sprayed the whole thing down with Axe.... Very disgusting.

I used to work at Sips. It used to be the place to be. I haven't been there in years though.

However, not surprised to read this.

Haven't been to Paddy's in probably 8 years. Had some good times there back in the day. Seriously, how much can an exterminator cost?

It was! And I'm sure it's really easy to have something like that happen when it's so late and everyone's tired. We moved out of town, so we've never made it back.

Keep it clean in here. For the kids.

Did the taco pop though?

Only when I bit the toothpick.

Is that what the kids are calling it now?

I'm not at all surprised. Most of the bars in Campustown are wretched, dilapidated, and vile places. I wish there were more places like Welch Ave and Cafe B. Even Charlie Yokes (used to be Headliners) seems somewhat clean.

Going to Sips, Cy's, and Paddy's, I mentally prepare myself to have my shoes stick to the floor and to have to breathe stale beer and urine fumes. Maybe I'm just turning into an old stick-in-the-mud, though.
