2. Don't expect to find hot coeds. You'll just find old non-trads and ugly asians.

Lots of bitterness from those who either had to stay home for 4 years or who paid for a crappy on campus dorm to pretend their moms house isn't 20 minutes away

7/11 was founded by a Coog but they aren't around. I would suggest Pinks Pizza on campus. Great pizza and beer. Or you can "Railgate" at Lucky's Pub and take the rail to the stadium. Either way you will be exposed to great culture and glorious H-Town life! Welcome to the big city! Hope you enjoy your stay and the games. That is if you can get tix in the "Sea of Red!"

Well, it looks like the Popeyes where we were threatened by some youts is now closed. The McD's near the baseball facility was a bit safer. I was stuck there most of the day for a Science Fair.

Is The Den still on campus? That place had $2 20oz domestics when I was in law school.

Speaking of UH Law - did you know that it wins the contest every year for biggest difference in rank between law school and undergrad school? In my year, a whopping 3 alums from the undergrad school made it into the law school (compared to the 30-40 each from A&M and sip)

I always get a big chuckle with your tongue in cheek posts like this one. However, I'm never sure you are trying to convince us or yourself.

Just out of curiosity who was this "coog" who founded 7-11

Their website lists a Joe C. Thompson, Jr. as founder. A sip.

Not doubting you just wondering.

B.S. As someone else pointed out, the Thompson family started 7/11 in Oak Cliff (a peaceful place 100 years ago) and they are all University of Texas graduates.

Maybe you are thinking of the Stop-N-Rob chain?

The only UH 7/11 connection I'm familiar with is the famous quote by an anonymous Cotton Bowl official when UH was the SWC representative for the Cotton Bowl against Doug Flutie's Boston College team:

Quote:

But the Cougars weren't nearly as offended by that as they were by a remark from an anonymous Cotton Bowl official. The remark originally was printed in the Atlanta Journal and also appeared in the Miami Herald before it surfaced in Dallas.

"Damn it, half of these (Houston) people will come up here and eat at the 7-Eleven store, and the other half will be trying to hold it up," the official reportedly said.

Maybe he meant that a Coog founded July 11

Yeoman has his convenience store chains mixed up.


Coog Leroy Melcher acquired the old U-Tot-Em chain in 1950 and built it up tremendously. Circle K bought them out in 1984.

Melcher was actually a UH dropout, but gave millions to the school, including building the business school.
