George's - Never heard of them until now but the menu looks solid and good prices. They are off Ox road heading towards Burke in that shopping center on the right with La Tolteca. Looks like the support a lot of community youth sports programs and Mason. Let's show them some love and spread the word.

The solution is simple: Mason is way too strict the first week of school. Everyone knows someone who gets arrested that first week, and after that, every kid is too scared to actually let loose.

I even knew a guy who got legit arrested just for ripping flyers off the RA board in the dorms. Was it wrong? Sure. But arrested? Come on. When stuff like that happens, it sends a message—step out of line even a little, and you’re done. So the entire student body stays in “don’t breathe wrong” mode the rest of the year.

Lmao I had a brother get arrested at Mason Day by a f**king plainclothes officer for having a water bottle full of booze. Just some of the lamest shit ever to have undercover cops popping college kids for doing college things.

Alas, no chocolate chip cookies in the Gold Room for the Cornell game!

Anybody have reactions to the George's Steaks & Things food that was served?

Food was really good, pleased to have some variety from Wegmans. I did miss the cookies, though, haha.

They also appear to have done an NIL partnership with MJ Johnson from our women's team, she's been posting about their food on Instagram.

Never heard of this place but it looks decent. Will have to throw them a few bucks for a steak and cheese before the next game

In my day, they had wet t-shirt contests. And you guys think I'm just an old fogey. Well I am, but....

It was definitely packed. So to speak.

 

[Where's the party?]

I used to be the Activities Chairman back in the day, and organized the bands and beer trucks on Mason Day. Back then we camped out near the gym on Wed night. The bands played in K lot on Thursday night, and from the library steps on Friday during the day. The frats had drinking canoe races. We parked multiple beer trucks (King Wholesale) on the quad. Everyone got along and everyone had fun, and I don't recall anyone getting hassled, let alone locked up by campus or FFX City police. Different era.

They better not have even thought about alcohol during those wet t shirt contests!

Well, they may have thought about it.

I remember drinking quite a bit in the student government offices that day/those days.
