Holy Cow, Podunk. The Jungle might have been more fun, but don't forget that I was a married man at that point and, for all of my faults, I have been a 100% faithful husband. The Jungle would not have been the place for me! I was studying and teaching a couple of classes at UConn then, and I remember the Thursday night goings-on. I had to give quizzes every Friday so that my students would show up (sometimes not in great shape). If it wasn't snowing, you had to bring a shovel on Fridays anyways to make a path through the beer cans!
Yes the Sugar Shack was there, but I didn't really go there often (maybe once or twice)--like I say, I was an old married f**t of 24, and lived a half an hour or more from campus. I still am an old(er) married f**t 31 years later, and still living more than a half an hour from the campus where I teach (not at UConn, but at another school in CT).
