[Vision2020] Say What? (local and recent)

[Carl Westberg]

I did miss the 20 feet reference.  But smoking or non smoking, Moscow without the Corner Club would be like Paris without the Louvre, London without Buckingham Palace, New York without the Empire State Building, Seattle without the Space Needle, Boise without.....um....without....uh...blue turf?

Carl,
You missed my point about the 20 feet!The INCUMBENT council president voted to keep smokers 20 feet from the front door, he got his wish, no smoking in bars and clubs.And I got my wish, him  OUT OF ELECTED OFFICE. A fair trade.
And when SI named The Corner Club one of the "Top 25 Sports Bars" you could still smoke there!

Wayne, I sense you apparently could not care less about sports, but did you know that in 2005, Sports Illustrated named our local long standing establishment one of the "Top 25 sports bars in the United States"?  True...as the writer said....
Corner Club Moscow, Idaho 
A CAREFREE atmosphere (perhaps enhanced by the traditional 32-ounce beer glasses) prevails at this popular University of Idaho hangout, which opened in 1948. Consider that for much of its history, the most famous item in the bar was a nail hammered into a ceiling beam, daring anyone to try to match the 11'3" leap made by former Vandals basketball star Gus Johnson. The mark stood for 23 years until it was equaled by Southern Idaho's Joey Johnson (Gus's cousin) in 1986. (The nail was removed in 1991 when half the bar was torn down to make room for a freeway, but the stories are still told fondly.)
