You were fucking slacking off. Can't rely on anyone anymore.. Damn. :disappointed:

I really did not care that much. I have been there a couple times before. Good food, fun time, but it was not worth all the money they put into it.

And if you care, WWE's last trade was 7.96. There is that better.

Oh, the memories...

I won't miss "The World", but I do miss Teenweek's up to the second reporting.

:disappointed:

well Unicron must be happy :thumbs-up:

I might actually buy a shirt now when they start having big discounts.

thanks for the brainfart

I never ate there, was the food any good?

When my friends and I meet up in the city we use that or MTV as a land mark to meet up in times square...depending on the time of day...oh well I guess we'll have to find something else...

the wings were good
but for some reason, the drinks ,even with ice in them, were still WARM

good riddance to a shitty venue for shows.

Ugh, the food there was TERRIBLE...and they made THE WORST margaritas known to man...it was like ice and tequila.....ughh....blech

but but but but but thats where stuff happened
:-(

Ahhh...another end of an era. That place has some memories. And, the food was actually Damn good for Times Square, it was the drinks that sucked ass. They made a mean Buffalo Chicken salad.

They will be subletting the space out...so if things change fiscally for them, and they get HOT again, they can still bring it back...but it's kind of doubtful after getting burned.

I guess Raw XV will have to be done somewhere else. Such a shame.

this gives me a reason to rush right in and buy a shirt on sale from the world...yeah
