What was the sports bar just off of South Blvd called? It was huge. There were two other bars in the building next to it.

Rocket Chair at Discovery Place,

YMCA camp in N.Char was at the Mallard Creek BBQ place and they still had no building built at university.

95.1 and 106.5 had almost the same name at one point didn't they? The End and The Edge? lol

mentioned the rocket chair in my post. yeah, its gone now. for some reason those bastards felt the need to take it away! I just learned this a couple of months ago.

Remember the baby room? Where you would go in there and sit and watch this huge screen about some educational topic and u were surrounded by pictures of developing babies?

Do you have a tile of your handprint up around Discovery Place?

I hated YMCA day camp. I went for one summer and told my mom id never ever go back there. Sleep away camp was soo much cooler. Camp Thunderbird and Camp Cheerio were where it was at!
