remember the name of the nightclub on Hwy 82 just west of Columbus back in the 70's? It was the hot spot back then and its main competition was the Water Works club in downtown Columbus. I guess I have to many dead brain cells from the booze, drugs and hoe's at that place.

On the way, used to leave LenLews and Triangle club and go up there? Water Works was more downtown, if I remember correctly. My brain cells are dead too, but I think that was it.

I think I remember my dad talking about a club they used to go to called the Landing maybe? It burned down. Does that ring a bell? I may be mixing up his words to, but I recall him talking about a club called the Landing I believe.

the Welding Works?

There was the Welding Works in the early-mid 70's. (Don't know about the 80's) You had to be prepared at all times.

at the crossroads 45 and 82. For additional entertainment and a much different crowd with women you hadn't already worn your welcome out with you went to The Club. The Club was rocking in the late 70's and early 80's. There was absoulutely nothing to do in Starkville those days without creating it yourself, which we did. Starkville has really changed and I'm quite impressed with it now.

in the mid 70's then it changed to The Club. Good place to shoot pool and fight. I saw a girl beat the **** out of her boyfriend with a full fifth of whiskeyone night. She didn't weigh 100 lbs soaking wet with rocks in her pocket. Took 4 bouncers and 3 deputies to get her out. As someone said, lots of 'Bama pulpwooders in there.

Welding Works was a good place to pick up W girls but you literally had to fight off the Air
Base guys for them. Just a couple of blocks from the W campus.

Len Lew's was my hangout. Good food, cold beer and most of the sorority girls hung there. Triangle club was a low-rent place and Echols was where all the local old men hung out.

No pool tables. Baseball & Football players drank free all night. go to right side of the bar and Bob would give you a beer. I would leave him tickets.
