The Crossing
Walking from GSP-Corbin Hall my freshman year, I would often look longingly at those people lucky enough to be spending an afternoon at The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St. Music from the jukebox blares as pass-by enviously watch students with free afternoons congregate on the patio with ice-cold beers in their hands.
The Crossing is a KU tradition. Inside, the standard pool table, dartboard and big-screen TV satisfy the regulars, but it's the campus view that draws throngs of thirsty students. "It's a convenient location and good times. It's laid back, and you can just
chill and listen to good music that you pick. I've been coming here since freshman year, so it's a little nostalgic," says Beth Jones, Clarksville, Tenn., senior.
No matter the day of the week, there is always a beer special — the best being Monday's $1 domestic draws. So before you graduate and it's too late, go to The Crossing, make the passers-by jealous and get wasted at 1 p.m. in the afternoon.
