In order to provide parking during the construction a temporary parking area will be placed where Stokes A and B are and an old old laundry building. Here is a photo of soon to be demolished Stokes A

Please Slick Rick tell them about the TV antenna story and your installation skills!!! One of craziest things of the infamous happenings in this building and its inner suites!!!!

These buildings will be missed. I've had many memories there.

I have memories there as well, but the place was a dump when I lived there 27 years ago.

If these walls could talk.....wow

Anybody want to guess which super bowl winning quarterbacks played at Mc Naspy stadium?

TB

RS

Stokes...or as I call it hell. Working for the Physical Plant at nights and on weekends we would cringe when a call came in from Stokes. It could be one of 3 things. 1)Sewage backup, which I literally saw ____ rocket from a toilet when we tried to plunge the shower drain. 2)Fire Extinguishers being deployed under someone's door...it really sucked vacuuming up all that Haylon...stays in your friggin nostrils for weeks. 3)The Urinals on the third floor getting the handles kicked in the on position and flooding the suite from the third floor all the way down. Thank god for shop vacs. I came to hate this place just because the worst of the worst lived here and destroyed the place.

RS? Did that team for Pensacola ever make it to Mc Naspy? I seem to recall it was cancelled at Mc Naspy.

Roger Staubach (Pensacola Navy) and Terry Bradshaw (spit) and I think there was one more but I can't remember who it was. John Pennel a gold medal winning pole vaulter appeared at the southwestern relays one year.

But it was OUR dump! :)

I have good memories of those days ... and learning how to wash and dry clothes!
