As chance would have it, I will be on their campus tomorrow. Anyone know where I can wear a Hawkeye hat and talk shit with some local frat boys?
GCU bars?

Rough neighborhood. If you get a chance yet Los Dos Molinos in Uptown area.
some of my favorite drinkers are also Christian.
Yah anywhere within walking distance of that campus I would stay far away from. The university has done a great job building from the ground up but once your off campus it is a really terrible part of town.
Fight Bar World Tour 2021. I love it.
That place has a very cultish following
Their campus is small, private and nice. Step across the street and your bound to get shot. It’s in a horrible area of Phoenix.
Phoenix, uptown? Never heard that term. before. There’s one on Camelback and it’s pretty good.
I believe former Viking and Ravens Center Matt Birk sent his oldest child (of 8 kids!) out to Grand Canyon (Daughter). He's on KFAN in the Twin Cities quite a bit, so they were just talking about what he was up to and sending his first child off to college came up. He's also a Harvard grad, so I doubt he would send his first child off to a dump a long way from home. Ha! (don't recall if she's there for athletics as well or not)
You serious? Not discounting his intelligence, but did it ever cross your mind that perhaps religion is Of more importance than the economics of the neighborhood? I’ve lived in the metro for 20 years, but surely I’m off in my assessment.
Serious about what? That he sent a daughter there? Yeah, I was serious, but not certain. Did you want to start an argument about religion or something? Just stated what I thought I heard on the radio and a former NFL player has a child there I think. Nothing more.
Serious as in it sounds like you’re doubting it’s a dump of Harvard grad Matt Birk would send his kid there.
I don't care if it's the F'ing Yale of Arizona, I know nothing about it and don't care to. Does that make it clear for you? JFC
GCU started as a Baptist school, now a non denominational Christian school.

Been on campus once when we played them in rugby (won 72-12 or so I believe *CSB*). As many have said, the campus is pretty nice and the surrounding area is iffy.
I assume you'll see some Hawkeye fans though since there are Hawks seemingly everywhere.

They won't have a bar in Indy and if you come down here there ain't nothing but 'hood around the fairgrounds.
38th St. is a line of demarcation in Indy and the fairgrounds are on 38th.
