RIP Union South

You were always the ugly stepchild to the much more celebrated UW Memorial Union, but you won't soon be forgotten.  Well, when the replacement comes along in about 2 years maybe you will be, but nevertheless.  All of this campus development certainly has its benefits, but the griminess of University Square 4 and Union South will never be replicated.  

It seems like only yesterday at Square 4 that I was making out with a girl as the credits rolled to The Phantom ("Slam evil!"), while horrified children and their mother's walked by.  Or how about that memorable bowling team we had at Union South.  It was a marathon season of 10 weeks or so, sure to be some of the best of my life.  I vividly recall going twice and not a single time more.  Rest In Player Pieces Square 4 & Union South.
