Get Yourself a College Girl in SF


Thursday, March 13, 2008

sfcollege_main.jpegAhh, the college bar scene. The 21st birthday celebrations, the many rounds of shots, the "girls' night out" storming of the bars. San Francisco has colleges, but it isn't really a college town: so where do nubile young coeds go to imbibe? Surely the dorms and nearby craphole housing units have raging 20 and under parties, but as a non-student, they're usually hard to find and hard to crash, and sometimes being called an old perv stings. Instead, throw yourself in destiny's way and head over to these bars. They are the unofficial watering holes of colleges in San Francisco, and will not be uber-trendy (it helps with sneaking in 19 and 20-year olds). They'll also be easy on the wallet and packed with other students. Let the college games begin.

Buckshot Bar and Game Room

848 Geary St
San Francisco, CA 94109

Buckshot is a new bar on the scene, but already popular with USF'ers. Once known as Alpha Bar, Buckshot has taken over the space and added on plenty of games to distract your target. There's skeeball, a pool table, shuffleboard and, oh yes, a deer hunting video game complete with rifle/controller. Don't get distracted by all the games, though -- you came here for the girls, right? Right? (photo) [link]

Abbey Tavern

4100 Geary Blvd. @ 5th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

How can you go wrong with a place that's touted on its website as "San Francisco's #1 Irish Sports Bar and Euro Disco"? Close (relatively) to USF, it's easy to find students here playing pool, watching the game, or drinking beers. Tuesday is "Kill the Keg" night, with selected beers sold at $1. Thursday is college night, with $5 pitchers of Bud and $1 pints of Bud. Fish in a barrel. Fish. In. A. Barrel. (photo) [link]
