Jackpot reviewed on Playboy U

October, 10, 2008

Jackpot is “College Bar of the Week” on playboyu.com. Click on the link if you can. For those whose work probably blocks access, here’s a little something for ya:

“Right by the sprawling NCSU campus, Jackpot! is a cool alternative to the sports bars and chain restaurants that surround it. Looking for the budding literati and the downward-spiraling graduates who still scream with glee to the Clash and the Jam? You’ll find them here. No bar in Raleigh comes close to the divey, decaying décor of this place, where African masks and paintings from Where the Wild Things Are cover the walls. It’s as no-frills as bars come, and even though it’s dirty and quite literally falling apart, the crew and the regulars make it worth the trip.”

Bifocal Media will be filming some stuff for comedian Ryan Newcomb on Saturday. Maybe you can stop in and say hello?
