-In 1984 we (4th floor of Schroeder Hall guys) were offered the first import night on campus.  One of the owners (?) offered us $1 imports on Thursday night if we came in every Thursday for the rest of the year.  We did, and import night spread to the Ardmore from there.  +In 1984 we (4th floor of Schroeder Hall guys) were offered the first import night on campus.  One of the owners, Mitch, offered us $1 imports on Thursday night if we came in every Thursday for the rest of the year.  We did, and import night spread to the Ardmore from there.
