All bullshit aside it was an awesome flyover x2. And I thought UW did an amazing job with honoring the vets. I’m not usually into that, but it was cool, and I never bought a drink that night (partly because my gal is rich). But the concessions are garbage.
UW pregame is unique in that you have a million Indian/Middle Eastern/Asian hole in the wall places you don't want to stop at because they don't serve beer, while the 3 traditional breweries have the owners standing outside with a clicker like they're a fucking school bus driver making sure they don't get evicted by the city due to overcapacity.
someone with more money than me needs to tear down some 2 story shithole on a decent sized lot in the U District and make an actually functional brewery with tons of tvs, and 2-3 floors of seating capacity.
I don't care how expensive and redundantly length the permitting process is in Seattle, that venue would make major $$$$$$. I wouldn't even care how expensive the beer is there. Waiting in line for one of 3 decent places outside the stadium is whack.
I went to the Zone for the first time in a decade or so before the game for a bit and it was honestly a better experience than sitting in some cramped 500 square foot dive in the U District.
I’m torn because I love quaint places like the College Inn, Big Time, and Earl’s but you’re not wrong. There’s unfortunately a lot of NIMBY groups working to “preserve” The Ave, but what are they fighting for anymore? Bubble tea and teriyaki joints?
Is there any hope in taking over the U Village area? Or making it more accessible to foot traffic from the stadium?
I'm old enough to remember when the U Village had plebeians and a bowling alley and not rich Laurelhurst Karens. My mom and uncle are old to remember when it was a giant dump. My uncle claims he used to shoot rats there as a youth.

Only on Hardcore Husky are you going to get this kind of anal-ysis.
