Historic college sports bar closing after 50 years
A harsh decision to close the historic location is disappointing Pac-12 and Big-10 sports fans.

What is it that makes college bars so nostalgic? Even though they tend to be a bit, um, dingy and downright smelly, there's just nothing quite like that favorite hangout spot.
For me it was Barney's Beanery in Westwood. When my UCLA Bruins were not playing at the Rose Bowl, you'd find my friends and me at Barney's, 8-clapping our way through the games.
