Manhattan is sorely underrepresented here.

1.  MHS C-Hall.  It's a freaking psychedelic odyssey up there, man. 

2. The turtle courtyard in the 9th grade center.

3. The 9th grade center, period.  It's like, HELLOOOOOOOO, WHAT DECADE IS IT?  HAVEN'T YOU HEARD OF AN INTERIOR DECORATOR?????????   :fiesta:

4. The tunnels at K-State.  I think that's what people were talking about with the tubes.  Got wasted and went there six different times in a week and a half, was on a real tunnel binge back then.

5. Those handicapped parking signs that used to spring out of the Union parking lot that, if pushed, swiveled 360 degrees.   :yikes:  Super awesome.

6.  Thomas Sign!

7.  Until last year, I would've said Panda Paradise*^ on Westport Road because they managed to successfully operate a restaurant without a single customer for nearly two decades, but I guess they wanted to get out of the Chinese Mafia Drug War, so they closed their doors.  To replace Panda Paradise on this list, I will say .................................. the Manhattan Public Library because that blue $0.25 pencil machine kicks ass.

We were actually discussing c-hall a few days ago in class. gotta love the dual entrances.

9th grade center is great architecture. my fav pre-kstate building.

#5 was fantastic as well. great entry, "benny"
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

Nah, when people say "Tubes" i'm pretty sure they mean the tubes out at Tuttle.  Now the tunnels, that's another thing.  There's a bunch of steam tunnels that run underneath the campus.  A buddy and I explored those a few times, he's got bunch of pics stashed somewhere that I haven't seen in years.  The freaky part of that is the section of tunnel that runs by Durland Hall, there's a little radioactivity sign for the cheesy little reactor they have there.  We ran right past that one!   :eek: :eek:  :cyclist:

I am not so sure what is so amazing about C hall except it is hotter than the pope at a pre-school.  Johnny Kaw is amazingly WTF-ish.

I know Johnny Kaw is a big WTF.  Don't question my EMAJK, I'm just saying that C-Hall is amazing because walking down it can make you trip balls when you're stone cold sober.

FWIW, 5 points was undergoing construction at Christmas time, was going to be turned into 6 points apparently.
