Walked by after the bball game on Tuesday, saw it was dark . No closure sign though. Yelp reports that yelpers are reporting it is closed.

It was Abe's Pizza the last time I walked by, but that's at least a year ago.SBGold said:
I think Blondies is gone, maybe it is something called Abe's Pizza. History is leaving us, if Annapurna leaves . . .
Blondies is no longer what it was, with Fat Slice gone, our past is becoming lost...Another Bear said:
Well that's a bummer.
Failed the cat scan. I don't blame you.dimitrig said:
Back in the early 1990s a couple years after Fat Slice first opened up I got a slice and brought it home to eat. I opened it up and my cat was very interested, sniffing it. Her tail fluffed up and she ran away. I did not eat that slice of pizza or any other pizza from Fat Slice since.

I LOVED Fat Slice. It was an almost every day visit. Great pizza.
Then, sometime later in life, I went there when I had the kind of money where I could spend $3 on lunch, and it suddenly was terrible.
Funny how that works.
As long as Top Dog sticks around I'm okay but I get your drift. Mario's La Fiesta closing...now that one hurt a bit.Strykur said:Blondies is no longer what it was, with Fat Slice gone, our past is becoming lost...Another Bear said:

I heard the guys from Rancid all worked at fat slice when it opened in the 80's. I used to go there but after I heard that about 20 years ago I stopped. Where would they have gotten that name?

At Casa Zimbabwe in 1994 we paid Rancid $50 and free beer to play a party. They rocked the house.
RIP Fat Slice. I took in many calories from there.

Lint used to hang out in Cloyne all the time. It was not just Rancid, but Green Day also played CZ, although that may have been 1991-ish.

Cats lick their asses. Not sure I'd trust their judgement.
My sister lived at Cloyne when Primus and Green Day played. Their fee: all the beer and fish sticks they could consume.dimitrig said:dajo9 said:Oski87 said:

Well-played by you both. Best intellectual discourse I've read on BI in a while!dimitrig said:Chapman_is_Gone said:dimitrig said:

And yet, somehow, Fat Slice was worse. Think about that.

I arrived a few years later still, in the midst of a particularly tight housing situation. I think every bed was full by the spring semester. This was in 2000 - 2001.okaydo said:dajo9 said:Oski87 said:

I lived in CZ a few years after you. I was the last person to pick a room. I lived in a triple by myself. That's how bad it's reputation got.
