Where's the best place to get ISU gear in Ames?

I find the best place with the best selections is the University Book Store, at the MU. Can be a little expensive compared to other places, but they seem to have the most to choose from.

that dingy building is still up by the new wendys

Oh that, yeah that needs to be torn down.

IMO: still the MU .... great quality stuff!

Strawberry Patch in the mall, Dogtown U on Stanton, Intensitee on Welch I think.

Is Intensitee where T-Galaxy used to be?

I'm actually not sure where Intensitee is, my wife got me some stuff there for Christmas, I think it's on Welch though. T-Galaxy is still in the building across from the gas station.

 

[cyclonedave25]

But they have the biggest selections and their stuff is great quality.

Legends on Lincoln Way has a GREAT view of the campus.. a MUST visit while in Ames.

-keep.

The hoodie I got from Intensitee is great, wore it constantly this winter and still looks like new.

Last I knew, Intensitee was right beside Jimmy Johns... But, I haven't been down there "sober" in awhile... :biglaugh:

That place had no business being open in the nineties. I went in there exactly once.

Tell me the Fox Lounge is still open!

Yeah, that sounds right.

No matter what, your "To Do" list begins and ends with Dangerous Curves.

That is the worst advice you could ever give anyone! Shame on you.

[cmoneyr]

Heh, I only live 8ish blocks from Campus Town, but I rarely go there unless for work and that's just a quick stop.

Considering what site we're on, don't forget the new football practice field and basketball facility. Along with the basketball facility pretty much that whole area has went from nothing to apartments and suburbia. A lot of Duff south of Lincoln Way is different; Target, Wal-Mart, Panera, Old Chicago, O'Mally's are new or different; the theater, the restaurant that was beside it and the bowling alley, the car wash and uhaul stores by Jiffy lube are all gone.
