..anyone remember "Nacho Night" at Champ's???

Thursday nights.........kids lined up outside the door.........$1..........GIANT oblong plate of hot tortilla chips.....chili, real cheeses, olives, lettuce, onion, sour cream, peppers, salsa, guacamole, etc. It was very sloppy, and very difficult to eat the entire plate and it was ABSOLUTELY F&CKING DELICIOUS.

Online trivia and cheap pitchers made it all the better.

The musical stylings of J.J. Mangon made it a little worse, but I was known to occasionally grab his guitar and play a song or two for the crowd myself.

I'd say I went there at least a hundred times.

I wonder if this is still going on?

I have never been there for "nacho night", but I do remember doing double shots of Old Grand Dad and young ladies with short hair wearing flappers dancing on the bar. Then, some a-hole named Volstead made us dump all the booze into the steet and I haven't been back ther since.

Sincerely,

Joe Paterno

I swear........these nachos were the stuff of legend!

If/when I go back to my alma mater (that I flunked out of), I'm getting a plate.

Ahh yes, Champs. My next door neighbor is a skank, I mean waitress, there.

I've never been there but I hear they allow cigars.

If you get up here before August 2009, ping me and we'll herf it up!
