Wow what a dump lol. Nice TV’s cheap beer!

You need a damn air traffic controller to get out of their parking lot. Thanks SMU89 for not telling me to park across the street.

Funny thing is, it used to be worse
I went there after the Tulane game, and was actually impressed at how far it had come. At least my eyes weren't watering from the dense cancer stick smoke...

Milo's feels like a Fox Sports Grill compared to where it was a few years ago:

-Fog of war, with about a 3.5 ft visibility
-Guaranteed Lung biscuits
-Red, watery eyes
-Throw away the clothes you wore
-All tube TVs

How any of the long-standing staff haven't croaked should be studied by cancer researchers.

I will always love Milo's

What about a roid popper on the seats! :lol:


My car is a boat, and some Giant SUV was next to me, there was no way you could get out with out major help and a lot of turning the wheel. I'll go back for the picture beer but will park across the st.

SMU89 said that after a rain storm in the 80's part of the roof caved in on him and his friends up by the bar kitchen area. The tile is still bent from it :shock:

Seats leave much to be desired, but that's what the pitcher beer is for!!

Their lot is a disaster - park in the one row lot across the dart tracks (runs parallel to the track on the north side of SMU blvd) always a spot.

I have always heard about that story when the roof caved in while they were open! that's hilarious!

by far the most character in a place, especially with elephant and home bar no more

I went by there after the SFA game, and was forced by my wife to order her a white wine (which is all she will drink) and almost got laughed out of the place
All in all, it's held up pretty well. And I like that Allan Adami jersey in the case!

i like the sticky 'carpet' (or what once was). yeah, pitchers are cheap and they have fooseball. that's about the only reason I go there, which has only been once in the past 3 years.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally

Isn't that the place that used to be the Stables in the olden days of yore. I used to work there. Got shut down every other month for serving minors. We tried to explain that no matter what their age, working in a mine all day deserved a beer.

Yes also know as Up Your Alley featuring the great Bowley & Wilson-the creator of such classics as

"She's an SMU Sorority [deleted]"
"Old Man Lucas-Had a Lot of Mucuous"
"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris
