Ziggy's!

Ziggy's!

nah, that mofo is way too cheap!

[Buzzed]

nah, that mofo is way too cheap!

He might be richer than you think. Word on the street was he made out like a bandit at the end. Had a long multi year lease when MU bought the building for McCabe. When they were renovating it, they broke a pipe and flooded Ziggy's. Got all new equipment from that. Opened it back up only to drive a hard bargain with MU to buy out his lease. Then he sold his brand new equipment and   retired to South Florida.

Whatever it is, I hope it's Center in the name.

You're talking to Ziggy's Fry Boy, ya know?

Rich and cheap aren't mutually exclusive.

And here sits the fry boy, an out of work jizz mopper.....

If he was so cheap how did he get that awesome fresh orange juice hopper and plasma TV? Seriously though Ziggys made a good cheese-steak sandwich.

Double Chicken Breast was the way to go.

Holy crap that brings back memories. I'm from the chicago area and I made the mistake of ordering a hot dog once at ziggies (too used to having hot dogs being quality) what I received was the weirdest hot dog cut lengthwise and served on some sort of hoagie bun.

Also look at these prices!

Word always was he had money when he opened his restaurant too.  I wasn’t there for his ill fated Ziggorama though. I used to think that spit of gyro meat was the same my entire time at MU.

My roommate in Mashuda and I kept a “Ziggys jar” and would take turns making late night gyro trips.

Can't think of anything catchy with Fiserv, kinda sucks.

I feel like I really missed out on a lot at Marquette wthout Ziggy's and The Lanche.

You no lik-a the small breast?  You lik-a the big breast?

you know that it fills up the hoagie bun, my man!

I'm not into the whole penis splitting thing though, that's more Chi-town's area.

Don't be so "glass is half full".  Think of all of the tetanus shots you missed out on too.

The Lanche was just a college bar.  It is more about the memories than the actual place.

The Lanche was more than just a college bar .... plenty of locals wore that place out during the day and early evenings before the kids made their way across the street.

Agreed, nothing made you understand the importance of an education more than when you would go to the Lanche between classes.

[Goose]

I spent many afternoons at the Lanche and loved it. It definitely was a great education of life during the day. Lanche was my first MU bar that served me underage. My older buddy took me there and then to Art’s for my first strip club. Great memories.

Fiserv.... book it

Doesn’t look like it’s going to be Fiserv.

That was the one I heard, though I'm much happier with the remaining names they list as possibilities:

...it still leaves a number of other major names like Kohler, SC Johnson, Milwaukee Tool, Rockwell Automation and Robert W. Baird.

My favorite potential nicknames...

• The Rock
• The Toolbox
• The Bob
• The Big Johnson

Sorry, Kohler, sounds too much like the Kohl Center. Though hmm...how about The Sink?

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

I'm going to have a hard time getting out of the habit of calling it the Chaluparena. Hell, I may not even try and call it the Chaluparena no matter what.
