[Matt Bernius' Waking Dream]

and the poolhall i loved as a kid is now an ESPNZone

(January 12th, 2006)

As previously suggested, a lot has changed at RIT in ten years. Take for example the RITskeller. The RIT student cafe/bar is now an ESPN zone. Seriously. Walk in and it looks pretty much the same. But once you finish paying for your food and turn into the dining area, one finds oneself looking into a small TV production studio with a SportsCenter backing.

The wall that separated the Ritz back of the RIT game room has been knocked out and replaced with what you see above. I had heard that this had happened but didn’t expect the results to be quite so dramatic.

Thank you to everyone for your encouragement. Long overdue e-mails will be going out soon. Oh and Zooks, it’s only an MA. Though I truely wish it was a PhD.
