Not just Welch but the Zone had penny pitchers with a few bucks to get it, The Fox on Thursdays was 3 pitchers for $6.

Yes! I believe she was owner/apart of ownership???I can still see the old lady smoking long cigs at the bar. I got a fox 1 lounge jacket but it is long gone.
Fox had a small little patio outside too.I graduated at Christmas and didn’t discover Fox until that spring semester while I was still around ames.
Fox was my favorite college bar - RIP.

A certain night they'd push a few tables together and have a bunch of snacks. It was a great little dive.
Can’t comment on that but I trust you.Fox had a small little patio outside too.

Mainly for smokers. Tiny little patio on the South side of the building facing 5th St, small fence around it.I don't recall the outdoor patio? I can't recall that at all, I remember the snacks.
I was thinking the fox was Wednesday nights and hunky dorys was Thursday nights. Luke warm crappy beer but we would still go all out.Not just Welch but the Zone had penny pitchers with a few bucks to get it, The Fox on Thursdays was 3 pitchers for $6.

What year you graduate? I get the feels with all your posts in this thread.Not just Welch but the Zone had penny pitchers with a few bucks to get it, The Fox on Thursdays was 3 pitchers for $6.
Had a gf that lived right down the street from the fox, so we hung out there a lot. They had a colorful group of characters up there taking karaoke way too seriously. But I think the best of the night did win something. All the chairs were plastic patio furniture that sometimes got busted up if there was a fight.Can’t comment on that but I trust you.
If I recall correctly, We would usually show up around 8-9pm and close it down. Spring semester is not conducive to patio drinking (temperatures).
The karokee machine/evening sure does bring back good memories.
No, at a young age I was shown a secret bathroom that is very clean and is always available. It was a real life saver.Have you ever pooped at a bar on welch ave?
Cyclades? I lived there tooNo but I was lucky enough to live in the yellow Stanton Ave ******** apts which were a block away so could just run there if needed. I am sure there are instances...but has anyone ever pooped in the wide open toiled at Welch Ave. Station?
Had some friends that lived at Cyclades. Gravel lot behind it was sneaky big and nice to use.Cyclades? I lived there too
At Pita Pit and the gas station but never in a bar
Yep, I think there were four units all the same. They weren't bad and location was great. I remember the owners being very picky about the carpet. When people had parties they would cover the entire floor with plastic. This must not be the 'yellow ghetto' people are referring to.Had some friends that lived at Cyclades.

Walk in to living room, kitchen behind it, two smallish bedrooms to right, two smallish bedrooms to the left.
