If Towson nightlife is good for anything, it’s good for the bars. From Thursday to Saturday you can find students stumbling out of their apartments and heading uptown. Now each night isn’t the same and each bar has its own personality, but more likely than not, at least one of these things has happened to you at each bar while you were uptown.
B-Lounge
While at B-Lounge, you’ve probably seen some things that will scar your memory. One of those things might have been a girl fight in the bathroom. B-Lounge is just the place for a classy bathroom brawl because everyone is just filled with hostility from how hot it is, how crowded it is, and how badly they have to pee. So, while those girls were brawling it out, you probably stood and watched or hurried out of there before you ended up on the slippery floor right there with them.
Charles Village Pub
CVP is a more laid back bar where the music isn’t as rage-y but rather chill and fun, and so are the people… usually. Here is where you’ve probably gotten a 5-dollar fish bowl and took a snapchat story of you sipping it. In the mean time, you might have tripped over someone but gracefully saved that fish bowl from spilling before you saved yourself.
Torrent
Now Torrent is Towson’s version of a club and is filled with basically everybody you’ve ever met at Towson on Thursdays. At some point in your Torrent experiences, you’ve seen a guy dressed in a spider man outfit and have either danced with him or taken pictures of him from a far. We don’t know who he is or how he survives in a full body suit but kudos to you, dancing Spider-Man.
Greene Turtle
Greene Turtle’s bar scene remains a mystery to half of Towson’s population because they just can’t get in. But for those who can, they know that Turtle is what an actual bar is like in the world outside of Towson. If you’ve gone to Turtle, you’ve probably found yourself taking drunken pictures with your friends in the photo booth, thinking the pictures were “sooooo cute” at the time. Then the next morning you saw the pictures along with the lack of money in your wallet and crawled into a ball of self-loathing and dreams of THB.
Lil’ Dicky’s
Towson’s own little hole in the wall, literally. At Dicky’s you’ve probably been elbowed in the back by some girl who was trying to get a picture on the wall. While she was up there she may have spilled some of her pitcher of beer on you and didn’t even notice. But whatever, you had lemon drops calling your name at the bar anyways.
The Kent House Pub
This bar isn’t one of the most popular amongst Towson students, but it’s definitely a place to go to before you graduate. For those of you who have experienced Kent, you’ve probably had one of their legendary Irish car bombs knowing that you’re going to throw it back up by the end of the night. But hey, at least you can say you’ve been to an Irish pub.
Rec Room
Now Rec Room used to be a popular night location a couple of years ago, but now whenever anybody hears Rec Room, they assume they’re having a day drink. And if you’ve been to a day drink here, you have probably bumped into a guy in a basketball jersey flirting with a girl in a sundress and mirrored sunglasses. And after trying to swerve those people, you probably have bumped into someone you haven’t seen since freshman year and were forced into awkward conversation about how hot it was and how you’re so happy you bumped into them before going your separate ways.
Stay classy, Towson.
