Oh. Mah. Gawd.
Um, alums, you need to go back to your alma mater and check this place out. As I remember it, Cly's was the place where the beer formed a sticky film on the floor, the wine on Wine Night almost ate through the plastic cups, girls grinded drunkenly on poles on the second floor, and where I once spent 5 minutes on my 21st birthday before I had to be escorted home in my blacked out state. Classy, no?
WELL.
I just went back for a visit, and they redid the place. COMPLETELY. They serve food and there is a coffee bar in the front! The front part is all open-air now (like at Firehaus), and the decor is about a million times classier than before. The place was packed when no other bars were, probably because everybody is so excited to see its new makeover! Also, the whole back downstairs area is a total dance floor now, with glittering disco lights and a stage for girls to strut their skanky stuff!
Seriously, I was impressed. I mean, the clientele looks and acts exactly the same, but the decor is a stunning difference from the old Cly's. It looks good, although I must shed a tear for the trashy Cly's of my college years....
