Second Look Underll Nothing completes a tough day of classes, work and study'- ing quite like an ice cold beer, particularly if it's consumed in the presence of friends at one of Tulsa's college pubs, But what about the students who are, shall we say illegal imbibers? Where do they go, or rather, what do they do to get their piece of the action? This year, in an exclusive, word'of- mouth survey the Kendalla- brum staff found the answers to these question. But first . , , The copy you are about to read is true. These are actual quotations from real students, but in most cases the names of been withheld in order to pro- tect . . . the guilty. Mystery minor number one: I have an older friend buy my first drink. Afterwards, when I've finished it, I go to the bar and ask for a refill. Bartenders never refuse me when I have an empty glass. Mystery minor number two: Since my freshman year I've been drinking Bo Segers' beer. I follow him - at the Tap Room, at-I.R.'s, at the Sig house, wher- ever -- and when he puts down his drink, I take it. I don't think he has ever noticed. Mystery minor number three: I go up to the bar and say, I'd like a beet, Coors Light. I havent been carded since I was 15 years old. I guess I just look like a degenerate alcoholic.

se After sufficiently celebrating his 20th birthday at Pocket's, Craig O Munson shows how old he is . . . I I m 26 Alcohol According to Eric Hunter, so- cializing . . . mostly at j.R.'s and fraternities, is the favorite pastime of the average TU student. Ah, but Eric, what exactly does socializing mean? For most students it's getting out of their rooms and heading to one of Tulsa's local bars for a nightcap or two or three. The Tap Room,j.R.'s and Pockets are just right for a friendly tete-a-tete - but not for everyone. 'j.R.'s is too TU, says jeff Knox. lt's good to get away from the same old crowd and mingle with other types, to just get crazy ln A Bottle in a horde of strangers. Most students would agree, though, it doesn't matter where they go, so long as the bar has music, preferably loud, people, preferably rowdy, pool tables, preferably 6-pocket, and beer, preferably cold. Of course, for some people you can even ditch the pool and the music as long as friends are around, I have more fun sitting at home, drinking CSlice of coursej, and playing 'Hi Bob' with my friends, laughs jay Strother who has never even seen the inside of Pockets For those of us who have been inside Pocket's fwatch your step, pleasej, and ,I.R.'s Cwatch the can- opies, pleasej and the Tap Room Cwatch the bodies, pleasel, the rea- sons for going out on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday . . . , will never change. As Paul Portray so cleverly sums it up: because it's fun, because I don't want to study and because the Tap Room is open. Kelly Hiatt
