I used to live in 3 maiden ln...first one on the left, behind the belltower mart, during 1999-2002 or so...
shit was wild during those days...bumfights, gun battles, the dirty punk scene leaving all at once, the end of the rathskeller, when sadlacks was rundown, but still cool, tripping in pullen park and the rose garden,waffle house late as fuck, ihop packed to the ceiling with people on a saturday night...when the jackpot was THE place to go to if you needed coke. gillians before shit went downhill, the bomb shelter, the comet...shit just aint the same anymore. i don't miss it one fucking bit!

/trip down memory lane....errr.....maiden ln.

I'm an alum of both Maiden Lane (3 years) and Ashe Ave. (14 months)...

enjoyed Maiden Lane much more

11/13/2007 8:59:49 AM

Anyone remember "Rooster"?

That guy was awesome. Maiden Lane has had so many "personalities" over the years....

11/13/2007 11:38:23 AM

isn't 3 maiden ln. the Delta Upsilon house?

11/13/2007 12:57:46 PM

it may be a frat house now...back in the OLD days it was a brothel I am told. after I moved out, some mexicans had it for a while, then I lost track.
anyone remember whitebread?

11/13/2007 5:09:33 PM

Those mexicans made some awesome food. I forgot about them.

11/13/2007 5:10:42 PM

I missed good food. damn. I can imagine DnL being more upset by this.

I went to a party on Ashe Ave. once.

Some dude got shot in the leg and a bunch of stuff got stolen.

A wolfwebber lived there at the time, but I didn't know him and I can't remember who it was. I think he had "phat" in his username.

11/14/2007 11:18:29 PM

wow. just wow.

11/15/2007 8:03:32 AM

i know right? ashe is a beast.

11/15/2007 7:25:14 PM

Chamberlain St representing

11/16/2007 12:35:01 PM

thats where all the fags used to go for handjobs

11/17/2007 12:09:51 AM

ashe ave-

my brother used to live over there and one night I was hanging out on his front porch after a night of drinking and a man wanders up to our porch and asks if we want to buy ONE walkie talkie...My friend tested it out to see if anyone responded- but nobody ever did.


dude goes "well if you're not going to buy my walkie talkie, can i atleast have a shot?" well...i go inside and poor him a shot of tripple sec or something- bring it out and he takes it.

the next morning my brother wakes up and comes in to the kitchen and asks where the shot glass went that had the light bulb shards in it from when he broke a light bulb last night....

11/18/2007 12:44:47 PM

EyeVariety lived on maiden ln. they had some wild parties.

11/19/2007 12:16:24 AM

I would def not have lived there had i known all the shit that was to go down during my tenure there.

11/19/2007 12:25:05 AM

RIP Maiden Lane

Damn, never saw this thread. I was actually still living at 4 Maiden Ln (Theta Tau house at the time) when this thread was made. Lived there from 2005-2008

Looks like they claimed everything but our old house, the parking lot, and 2 Maiden.

RIP

i lived off enterprise on that side so like i was there

2/26/2017 6:54:36 PM

RIP again

This time, it looks like they are finally tearing down our old house (4 Maiden). We might reach out to the Sigma Chi guys and see if we can drink one last 40 on the porch for old times sake.
