bowling green ohio

[KYHockey3 0]

my sister plans on going to grad school at bowling green of ohio. is this in toledo or near it?

i am skipping school and going up there with her and my dad, so i have a few questions:

1- how close is the campus to detroit? we were told that it is a decent place to fly into, near the campus.

2- are there many hockey stores, like peranis in toledo or near campus?

3- whats fun to do up there?

thanks for your help. we were discussing this over dinner tonight, and i thought u all were a good source of info...

thanks

The hockey team will be at home this coming weekend (Friday and Saturday nights) against Alaska. Both teams are toward the bottom of the CCHA, but it's not bad hockey.

sorry. i forgot to include dates.

feb 11-14th around then i will be up there.

what big hockey shops are up there? what else?

I live in BG. Detroit is an hour and a half away if you drive like 65-70ish. There isn't a hockey store in town. The BGSU ice arena has a "Proshop" which has 10 sticks total at most.

Theres a pro shop at Tamoshanter Ice Arena in Sylvania(about twenty minutes away, near Toledo) its semi decent, not on par with Perani's. I go to the Perani's in Taylor Michigan(about ten miles from Detroit) to get my hockey stuff.

Bowling Green is a college town, like 20k students, 30k "townies". Girls out number the guys three to one and theres atleast 15 bars/clubs.

Fun to do? Nothing, you can get drunk I guess.

The only thing I like about this town is the out door inline rink. Full boards, full size nets and theres usually good games on Wednesday/Sunday nights.

Also shopping doesn't exist in this town. If she plans on shopping for anything other then Walmart material she'll be going to Toledo or Detroit. The mall is an absolute joke.

Any other questions let me know.

Perani's is an hour and 15 minutes maybe..Its a straight shot north on I-75, exit 33 I think.

Um Toledo is like 15 miles away, again straight shot north on I-75. I can think of 3-4 major malls among other smaller shopping centers in Toledo.

I mean shopping in BG consists of Walmart, Kroger, Meijer. The mall doesn't have anything major except a Sam Goody. Theres a movie theathre but they're poor and takes them forever to get certain movies in. Borat took three weeks to come in for example.

Other then that its a great town.

Nothing really good at Peranis Taylor...unless you want some old product from 1984. :)

I would tell you to go to my store, but I am completely bare.

i could haev bet my life that you would reply somewhere in this topic.

ill search that stuff later when i get home from school.

but the only problem is that i dont have a starting point for directions

[mack 44]

You're goddamn right I'll pipe in when you should learn to think for yourself sometimes. He's given you the city and that should provide you with an estimate of how far it'll be, then you can work on the actual directions to the store. Of course you'll reply and claim naivete since you have to quote every goddamn post you reply to since you have the attention span of a fish.

Do you guys have a variety of skates in stock? Ive never owned ice skates before and I was going to go to Perani's in Taylor but I really don't trust the "manager". I really don't want to spend $300 on a pair of skates that will perform poorly.

Thanks

[JR Boucicaut 3802]

Yes. And better prices than them as well.

damn thats cold!!!

i guess im not going to go to the zoo!

[Datsyukiandeek 0]

They really strip down the zoo during the winter, obviously. You can still see the cold weather animals but the majority are gone.

[JR Boucicaut 3802]

There's 12 Oaks and Fountain Walk in Novi as far as malls are concerned, if you want to come up my way.
