If you've been to Storrs anytime int eh past few years then, you know that back then, the entire region was very much different than it is now. Thumpers was a way off campus, and when things went down there, it wasn't like the Upper Deck or Huskies. More mature crowd there, whatever that means. Things never really went down at Ted's because in my days there, which were probably the same as yours, the bartender/bouncer that ran the place was a bare knuckle fighter that fought for cash in underground rings in the New London, and newly minted Foxwoods casino area. Not a lot of people knew that, but the few times the guy cleared house, it got around that nobody messed around at Teds. But upper deck and huskies, guaranteed fight every weekend. Mostly football players but basketball players too. Different times. In so very many ways. Not just the lack of internet and tweeter and facebook posts and camera phones to document everything.nobody was worried about idiot, wannabe tough guys, carrying guns or knives back then, and didn't have to be.
