Follett's never got my business again after putting a goddamn buckeye book in their window.

I hate seeing any Athens business close, but sorrynotsorry.
On the other hand, when I contacted every shirt retailer in town and implored them to offer a shirt like the old Adidas shirt I have that says "The Real O-H-I-O," Follet's is the only place that did it. They actually offered two designs, this being the latter: https://www.bkstr.com/ohiostore/product/ohio-university-t...

I had an “O-S Who?” shirt awhile ago and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get another?

It will be interesting to see what kind of business ends up in Follett's space. I'm guessing it will be more than one business considering their floor space. I hope it doesn't sit vacant like some other spaces uptown.
I’m interested to see what ends up there as well. Prime space. I’d imagine rent would be prohibitive for a lot of ventures.

Not shocked the “bookstore” isn’t a profitable venture but I figured they made their money selling OU stuff/apparel.
Their issue is College Bookstore mops the floor with them when it comes to merchandise. Follett never had a ton of merchandise and it was never anything that good.
