The C.I.



Hammer(ed) of the Greek Gods

The C.I. is a special place. Mainly because it's a place where Greeks and GDI's (God Damn Independents for those of you not familiar with the lingo) can meet, drink, and actually get along quite well. C.I. is the perfect combination of Cat's Eye's earthy ruggedness and The Crystal's tacky luster. It gets pretty crowded, but don't worry there's plenty of room for all in the basement, quite arguably the best part of the place. The bartenders however, aren't really that great and it usually takes a while for you to get served. They focus mainly on replenishing the cups of the sorority girls that drop by on their way to The Crystal. Most Athens students have an entire collection of plastic beer cups that they stole from C.I. back at their houses.

Though they keep the drafts of beer flowing like no other, if you want to take you drunkenness to the next level, the bar has an extensive list of Bombs. Jägerbombs, Cherry Bombs, Irish Car Bombs, they're all here. If you want to go for something more unique order you and your friends a round of Swayze Bombs. I'm not sure what's in a Swayze Bomb, but it's blue and it's delicious. If you so thoroughly despise Greek life that you do not even want to be in the same building with these people then don't go getting high at the C.I., but if you don't mind then stop in and pay'em a visit. They even have free peanuts at the front bar during happy hour. MMM-MMM Bitch!

People who would probably drink here:
The entire Delta House from Animal House, Lucy Liu, Brad Pitt, Ashton Kutcher,Will Ferrell, Dave Matthews, Harper Lee, Anne Hathaway, Drew Brees, John Stewart, Julia Louise-Dreyfus, Jeremy Piven, Hunter S Thompson

What to order:
