Skipper's right. The cheese and the garlic sauce Benny's has trumps Gumby's, no matter the state of inebriation.
Does sharkeys still do wing buffett on wednesdays and sundays? Would love going in there for fatties of beer and all you can eat wings of many different flavors....
Following CJ on vine (stupid freakin app) was one of my better decisions recently
Hokie House has much better wings than PK's IMO, they also have hella cheap drink specials!
I can handle losing the occasional game to a player of his class and caliber.
Haha, not me. I stopped being a falcons fan the day they drafted him. I'll never forgive him.
Maisie Williams (Arya Stark) put up a pretty funny reaction Vine:

On Campus: Everything that the extra dollars on your friend's meal plan can pay for
Off Campus: Sycamore Deli for sandwiches (Mini Me is my favorite), PK's for wings or pizza, Boudreaux's for something a little different.
Damn, yeah I went before I came to VT and holy hell was the best thing ever. Then went again last year and it was meh. Probably just an 'eh' day
When I went 2 years ago it was delicious. And the football team still goes there before every home game too so it can't be that bad.
It's probably one of the Oscar Smith guys that got offered this weekend. Which won't be such a bad thing since those guys are supposedly under the radar and go to the same school as Brown and some good 2015 players.
- Sub Station II - The #5, with American cheese, on white, all-the-way, no tomato, add mayo, with pickles on the side is my favorite meal in Blacksburg.
- Blue Ridge BBQ - The pulled turkey sandwich on the hoagie roll, with mashed potatoes, and green beans is heavenly. I would put Chick-fil-A BBQ sauce on it too. I ate that for lunch on-campus pretty much every day my sophomore year.
- The HokieClub from West End - We were always impressed by the girls who ate that.
- Steak from West End - Like HvilleHokie mentioned above, it's just effing awesome that we can eat steakhouse quality steak on-campus.
Really disliked Farmhouse. Used to be awesome, really fell off the ball in past 5 years IMO
I think we all just went with food in Blacksburg or on Main Street. If you go out of Blacksburg, Homeplace, The Farmhouse, and The Palisades out in Giles County are fantastic
Sooo...in all seriousness does anyone know or can give an educated guess as to what CJ is harping on about here....Also is it just me or is CJ the F*****G Man doing all this recruiting work for us...love this guy
Off campus: Homeplace, PKs, Sharkeys wing/pizza/taco bar, Joes Diner (breakfast) and Cabo Fishy
On campus: West end, turner, owens, d2 (in order)
just my $0.02
I haven't eaten on campus in several years, but I'd assume anything from West End is still the way to go.
Off campus:
1. Cabo Fish Taco
2. Boudreaux
3. Sharkeys or Rivermill
How Home Place hasn't been brought up yet I don't know. I guess we all just take that one for a given.
On a side note, this is an awful conversation to have an hour before lunch. *drools*
Tower all the way.
I am absolutely in love with Cabo, I'm gonna have to try Boudreauxs though
As a current student, I devour food at the grill at Turner place, the meatloaf and fried chicken is fantastic and the cheese grits and succatash are the best sides in campus. Also anything from the chop house at WE.
off campus the buffalo chicken tacos from Cabo are my person favorite and anything from bull and bones
Someone introduce that young man to the Home Place Restaurant in Catawba.
I ate a whole lobster once at West End just because I could. I mean we have a cafeteria that sells whole lobster. Favorite places to eat off campus while I was there in 2008: That Indian resturant by gumby's was had a decent buffet; There was a sushi bar in the strip mail behind hardies across from the off campus gym; Five guys is always good too; But my ultimate favorite was SUB STATION II by Burger King. There ultimate always filled me up and it was good. Put the works with italian seasoning and oil and vinigar. It is soo good. I ate there all the time. I still have my sharky's wing challenge shirt.
Bravo.
This should already have 50,000 up-votes.
I wouldn't know about on campus dining. It's changed so much since '93-'96 when I was eating on campus. Back then, there was Dietrick, Shultz, and Owens/Hokie Bar and Grill. Dietrick was known as "Die Quick" for a reason. Shultz was nicknamed "Shitz" because an hour after getting back in the dorm from dinner there, there was always a mad dash for the bathroom. Owens was the best at the time and was not bad. Hokie Bar and Grill (I'm not sure if it is even there anymore), but they had the greasiest burgers I've ever had in my life. Only breakfast at Dietrick/Shultz were regularly edible. Shultz also had what passed for spaghetti just about every night for dinner that wouldn't light up your gut exit. I guess it's hard to f'up boiling noodles and pouring tomato sauce over them.
I was so happy to get off campus and be able to cook myself good food regularly. I was also a bit peeved that when my lil' sis' got to campus after me that they had upgraded on campus dining. She missed out on a rite of passage by missing the sea nuggets at Dietrick! (I still get nauseated thinking about those things)
Off Campus - we loved Gumby's (sorry to hear of it's passing), Mike's, PK's, Hokie House, Beaudreaux's, Macado's, and the Cellar.
