cardinal Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I concur with everything CA said. As a recent graduate myself, I felt totally safe around campus. And I would stay over at some of my buddies houses they rented right next to the Evil Southpark and it was not bad. Never saw any prostitution or gangs. I would say some of the areas up around college street are bad, but not necessarily right around campus. Yall must be driving around with your eyes closed.

cardinal Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 damn,weve had great crowds for the first 2 games.best tailgates weve ever had.then 1 stinking, rain all day game and now lamar has bad fans.bull shiit!!homecoming will be sold out and it will be a great atmosphere.fans arent the problem.id send my kids to sfa,sam or mcneese before id send them to uh.fortunatley my kids will all go to lamar!!! Well, I respect my kids enough to let them choose where they want to go to school at, instead of shoving my choice down their throats. Amazing that a parent would let a 17/18 year old make that decision that will influence their life. Are you also going to sit back and let them decide their major without any parental guidance? If they are unsure what they want to do in there life be prepared for them to have a degree in "Classical Studies" or "French", and have to move back in because they can't get a job. If that's what my kid wants to do, then there is nothing I can do to stop them. I can give them advice, make suggestions, point them in what I think is the right direction, but at the end of the day. They will make the final choice. I realized that I can't control them forever. If my kid gets a French degree, they better be the best damn French teacher on the planet. Or whatever else they decide. Oh, aren't you just mr. wonderful???!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LU 17 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Hey cougar king your right...that is a safe place to walk around at night. Go and get yourself a cream burger and then take a stroll down Scott towards 45. Your right, that's a real safe area. Cougar high is the best. Why are you wasting your time with us. We just can't compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say some of the areas up around college street are bad, but not necessarily right around campus. I used to actually live on campus at the ATO lodge in the 90's. We were located on the old fraternity row (now Cardinal Village in the parking lot behind the deaf ed building). Although some of the areas around campus can be a little shady, we never had one problem the entire time we were there, always felt safe. Dang that was some good times, hate that they tore those lodges down. We used to have some pretty good parties there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Card Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I know I wish it was that nice when I was there. The only thing is that we could drink on campus at games and we even had beer served at the Setzer Center. That was pretty cool, man how things have changed.

jettyman Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Me and LU17 shared some time at the old Hotel California which was located next to the practice field. My worst stay was at Brooks Shivers my freshman year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jettyman Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 The club was named Judge Roy Beans in the 80's and the Keg in the 70's. I bounced at the Bean for 3 years. Good times and yes time flies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
