(The) Varsity
Aug 14
There has been some extensive debate on the Warwick blogs, here, about whether The Varsity pub, that nestles nicely on Kirby corner outside the university, is in fact called ‘Varsity’ or ‘The Varsity’.
For my 10p worth I think its ‘The Varsity’, and I can say so with some certainty, because once upon a time, shortly after I graduated from Warwick (30th Auguest 1999), a friend (Jay McGuinness) and I embarked on a 1 day epic adventure doing a tour of the majority of ’The Varsitys’ in the country (at the time). So here you go (apologies for the poor image quality)…
Lincoln…
Leicester…
Wolverhampton…
Birmingham…
Coventry (City Centre)
Coventry (University of Warwick)…
So there you go definetely ‘The Varsity’, in fact the Unversity of Warwick arm was ‘The New Varsity’!
