Sharkeys was definitely the bar that I have the most fond memories of. It was one of the first places that I can remember hanging out with Greg, Erica and Andy, and so many other great memories took place there. The only down side is that they moved locations a few years back, and their new place doesn't have the same cozy intimate feel, but the menu and drink specials remained the same, so I guess we can't complain too much!
We all started out with their Friday special, Strong Island Iced Teas. When the bar tender told me the bill was $8.00, I automatically assumed that meant for one, but no, that's the cost for two tall Strong Islands...amazing! We had lots of moments like that this weekend, where we were just blown away by how inexpensive everything is. We even got carded, which of course made us all very happy, and we even got stamps on our hands, ahh the memories!
We all enjoyed a fabulous dinner of terribly unhealthy food. Who can resist the fried zuchinni, pulled pork sandwiches and sweet potato fries!? Not us.
After dinner we made our way to another favorite night spot, Champs. We were a little disappointed at how crowded and smokey it was, but we did enjoy a few beverages and some music I picked out from the juke box...Michael Jackson anyone?! :)
Around 10:30 we all looked at each other and almost simultaneously suggested we head back to the RV (we fear we are getting old!) Once we returned we did rally and played several rounds "American Idol" on the Wii and Catch Phrase...perhaps we really are getting old! :)
It was a great night though and we were happy to be saving our energy for a full day of tailgating and of course, some Hokie football!
