Every year, our friends at The Michigan Daily publish a "Best of Ann Arbor" list. And, don't get us wrong--there are a lot of great things about
The Michigan Review thought to catalogue those annoyances. So here, we present the) "Worst of Ann Arbor" list. It reflects a sentiment among seniors, we believe, of piss and vinegar about some things mixed in with our sense of nostalgia. If you don't hate something about this school, you haven't been a student long enough.
The list is a mixture of staff opinion, general consensus, the funniest true stories we've heard, and the general snarky, smartassery you've come to expect from the Review. More than anything, though, we hope you agree, disagree, and discuss the list. Because, after all, a conversation needs to be had about just how much this place can suck sometimes. If you'd like to comment, though, please email the editorial board at mrev@umich.edu.
Worst Food and Drink
Happy Hour:
Because nothing makes us 'happier' than drunk MBA students throwing around cash on overpriced martinis.
Bar: Rick’s
Unless you want to see drunk Greeks having sex on the pool tables.
Runner-Up: Scorekeepers
Unless you want to see drunk freshmen attempt to have sex on the pool tables.
As for Rick's: sure, you might have taken home a good hook-up a few times, but you probably also took home a nasty case of Syphilis, as well. There's nothing that we hate more than a grimy, sweaty pit with shitty specials.
Coffee: Bert’s
Drunk Food: Backroom Pizza
This applies unless you’re extremely wasted.
Burrito: Panchero's
It's difficult to imagine how Panchero's will survive with BTB Cantina perched above Charley's now. Good riddance; Panchero's is much worse, compared to BTB, Chipotle, Qdoba, Salsarita's, Rio Wraps...do we really need to keep going, here?
