Aug 26, 2008 - OSUAndy on The Ohio Union at Ohio Stadium
The New Union is looking awsome, but...

The new union is going to be great, but the closed down the main library at the same time. This really sucks because these are the two main things studnets use.

The place to party on gamedays

This is the pregame party spot for many of the OSU faithful. Many local radio stations and beer companies help to sponsor the events here.

The Jump

One of Ohio State's greatest traditions is jumping into mirror lake during Michigan week. We do it to wake the spirit of Woddy Hayes in hopes of a victory on saturday.

The World's Greatest

Maybe I am bias, but Ohio Stadium is the greatest stadium in all the world. I love fall saturdays with 100,000+ buckeye faithful. The atmosphere is out of control and the traditions of Ohio State are first rate. I love this place!!!

The Fast and The Furious

I love to skate, but I hardly have time and until last month I didnt even realize that we had an open skating rink open all year round. I have been a few times and it's been a blast. I love the work out is gives you as well.

Cheap and Fun

It kind of hurts your ankles but the music is usually pretty good (I've skated through popular hits and hilarious 90's singles.) And if you bring your Buck-ID it's really cheap. Definitely go especially if it's the season.

Apr 11, 2008 - MarioOSU on St. John Arena
About double the size of a high school gym

I asked my friend Andy what he thought about St. John Arena and I couldn't get much more out of him than it was "good and stuff." He said the seats were uncomfortable and he really couldn't explain why he liked the place he just did. I guess that's okay, maybe there's something indescribable about St. John's Arena that just takes the words out of you, maybe Andy just doesn't know how to form ideas and sentences.

Too big to be any good

This venue like all auditoriums is too big too be any good. If your favorite band is playing there, go, but make sure you get floor seats because if you're in the stands you'll be disappointed.

Apr 01, 2008 - MarioOSU on Wexner Center for the Arts
Bored? You shouldn't be.

If you're ever bored on campus just stop by the Wexner Center. You might be able to catch one of the films, or live performances that they showcase or you can tour their art exhibits for free. They also are an on-campus Ticketmaster location and their gift shop is probably the most original store on campus.

Legendary !

The seating is amazing, not a bad seat in the house and even though we have Value City Arena, if your lucky you can still catch a basketball game or two! The atmosphere is unbelievable and I hope they never get rid of St. Johns
