A Thursday for the Ages

Thanks to Barrett’s years of unwavering patronage, Scruffy’s did him a favor. Unfortunate scheduling conflicts with the Bar Exam forced Barrett to miss Wednesday night. Consequently, Scruffy’s held karaoke again on Thursday. To outsiders, this may not sound like a big deal but it really is. George W. once requested Thursday night karaoke, and was not only denied, but brutally stoned, maimed and shat upon for such a suggestion.

Barrett told Scruffy Murphy to jump, and Scruffy Murphy asked how high.

You may not know him as Barrett. Some call him, “Total Eclipse of The Heart Guy” or simply, “That Guy” but either way, if you have been to Scruffy’s within the last 7 years, you know who I'm talking about.

By midnight, news of the Thursday karaoke spread to Piano Man at Treff’s. Throngs of undergrads came from far and wide, leaving decency, decorum and dignity at the door. The air was gravid with energy and history was most certainly made.

Congrats to all those who are graduating tomorrow. You may attend more parties, and you may sing karaoke but never again will it be on a Thursday night at Scruff’s.
