I folded the pancake taco style and sunk my teeth into the soft gooey dough. It was beyond delicious. The sugar in the syrup and the slightly salty taste of the pancake complemented each other perfectly. The texture was amazing, warm and fluffy with just the right amount of moisture. My eyes rolled upward and I quickly scarfed the rest.<\/p>\n
I had been walking down Theme Row when I heard it: \u201cWould you like a free pancake? It\u2019s waiting for you.\u201d My ears pricked and I veered to towards the call. Who can say no to a free pancake? We\u2019re college students; we practically live for free food, let alone free sugar.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a house on Theme Row, the UPS Pancake House, that caters to just that need. It\u2019s open from ten o\u2019clock to twelve o\u2019clock on Saturdays. They make the pancakes inside and there\u2019s a table out front where they give them out. On occasion they add toppings, when they feel like \u201cgenerous gods.\u201d They mostly sit there yelling things like: \u201cFree pancakes! We even have napkins if you\u2019re feeling fancy.\u201d<\/p>\n
When I asked them how the process works they said: \u201cWe do a lot of shouting.\u201d I can tell they\u2019re glad to be there and enthusiastic about what they do. They are even making \u201cPancake propaganda posters.\u201d If nothing else it\u2019s a good alliteration. They told me that the the best part about it was: \u201cPeople being happy that they\u2019re getting free pancakes.\u201d<\/p>\n
So if you\u2019re getting tired of the SUB or running low on meal points come on down there for some complementary sugar. It\u2019s one of the tastier parts of the campus community, like they said: \u201cWe are a school of rhetoric and part of that rhetoric is that you get free pancakes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
