I liked the original Grill back in the day but I'm totally not getting this thread. There are places nicer now than it was then. Starkville has come a long ways in 20 years. I'm really impressed each time I get down there.
Anyway, what is up with that building? Why can't they keep anything going there?
Bulldog Burger has at least 4 TVs btw. I'm not saying it's a sports bar. But it is an option with good food.

I never understood the popularity of the grill back in the day. For all the unwarranted criticism of Starkville, if that was really the best option, that was damning.
It is wild that there isn't a local sports bar though if that's the case.

It was cool because of location - the Cotton District was still newish, and it was the only restaurant/bar in the District (at least in the early to mid '90s). And, if my very hazy memory is correct, they had a very long afternoon happy hour. I don't think anyone else in Starkville was doing anything like it at the time. You were either a restaurant like Harveys or a bar like Cheers. Mulligans was maybe the only other daytime drinking place I remember as a student.

The bar at the Bully II motel(?) was a good daytime drinking spot in the 80's

Thats the thing a college bar isn't supposed to be some super clean fancy mimosa friday and sunday special fruity boy place. Yes the happy hour at the old grill started at 3 if i remember correctly. $1 dollar bourbon and cokes. I consumed a ton of them.

Apparently kids today have standards LOL. I drank at the Bully III, The Club, The Landing, and Macs and ate Allgoods. I don't think any of those places would survive as they were then in today's scene.
