I don't think I've heard of the jungle. Though I'm only 20 so That may have something to do with it.

lol you guys...I had to ask some of my friends who graduated there before me...I guess the Jungle was closed in the mid/late 90's. And yup, off of Annie Glidden/7-11 right by greek row. I guess it used to be a main fraternity/sorority bar. I could've sworn they opened again while I was there for a foam party and then shut down again afterwards...

Makes sense I graduated in 95' partied with a bunch of friends that went to NIU and remember getting thrown out of that place. If my drunken memory is correct. There was a liquor store next to it. That had another door into bar...So I went back in under the radar and got even more drunk.

Next night we were at a bar call "Dan and Andy's"? I think. That place was a hole in the earth. Lots of good drunken times at NIU. Farm chicks from Iowa at NIU were either complete prudes that wanted a ring, or complete **** star like sloots! It was great.

Andy's...that's in downtown DeKalb on Lincoln Hwy right? Only been in there a couple of times. We mostly went to Molly's or Starbusters when I was there. Now we just go to Fatty's after/during homecoming

What did you go to NIU for? Pretty much all my friends were engineers.

Wow, what a trip down memory lane. I lived on Greek Row when I went to NIU. 1997-1999 I think. The Jungle would open for business, then get closed for serving minors. Then open again a few weeks later. It happened like twice a semester. Been there done that.

El Burrito Loco RULES!!!!!!!! So does OTTO's!!!!!
