Pam Sandoz, who owns Slinky’s, said the building at 144 West Chimes St. is up for sale with an asking price of $475,000. After two years of negotiations, she said, “we cannot come to any sort of an agreement on the price or the length of the lease going forward, so we have to close at the end of February.”
Plans are to have a “last call” party at Slinky’s on Jan. 20, then have a party on Feb. 17 to mark the 19th anniversary of Sandoz taking over as owner of the bar. “We’ll have a soft closing after that,” she said.

I just went there after the a&m game. It was nice to have an actual dive bar near campus

I hit that place up a few times on gameday. Can't remember having a bad time there.

Was the only place we would go get hammered when I was in school. Epitome of a college town dive bar.

Will someone post my Slinky's toilet pic in honor of that wonderful establishment?
I ain't doing it. It got me a year+ ban last time.

Did this place used to be a Chinese restaurant back in 2010 or so?

I lived in University Crossroads (gated complex off State St.) in 2007, never heard of Slinky’s

Legend has it that Tigerdroppings was founded at Slinkeys. The html code was written on a bar napkin.

RIP. Northgate loses another one. They had good beer before good beer was cool. Plus they had a decent pool table and nudie mag pages on the wall above the urinal.

Why can't anything stay open in the northgate area? Except Geauld Tiger, that place is the shite.
