Affordable drinks, fun atmosphere
attract students to Club Tsunami
BY NATASHA CHILINGERIAN
SENIOR PULSE REPORTER
Streams of well-dressed clientele,
great drink deals and a friendly staff
are just a few pluses for guests of Club
Tsunami. The nightclub, located within
driving distance from campus on Mar
tin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, is an ex
cellent option for students looking for a
hip night scene.
The club is attached to Chinese
restaurant Kowloon, which Club
Tsunami owner Kit Wah Chan also
runs, and Kowloon's cuisine is a spe
cial feature atthe club —-every night at
11 p.m. staff members bring out a com
plimentary buffet for customers. The
eatery's full menu is also available until
closing time.
"When (club-goers) party, they're
going to be hungry," Club Tsunami em
ployee Alan Chua said.
Every Saturday is comedy night at
the club, which highlights comedians
from all overthe country. Video poker,
pool tables, a big screen TV and Thurs
day night karaoke also provide alterna
tives to drinking and dancing.
ClubTsunami opened six years ago
after a remodeling project in
Kowloon's former club, Club Scan
dals. The moniker "Tsunami" came
out of a club-naming contest, and to
day, Chan said his venue is a popular
destination for students and the Eu
gene working class.
"Students say that they like the qual
ity of music, the value, the convenience
of parking and the food," Chan said.

attracting more students, is running
a buy one, get one free cover charge
(currently $5) for University students
as a promotion.
"We have our regulars; we always
seethe same people," Chua said. "Two
girls came in recently and said they
were new in town, and I said,‘Well, this
istheplacetobe.'"
The $1 Tsunami shot is available
every night, which makes "too broke
to drink" an invalid excuse. On Thurs
days, $2 well drinks are up for grabs.
Chan said Long Island Ice Tea and
Hop Skip (which he said tastes like
"Hawaiian punch with a kick") are
house favorites.
"We have good drinks at a cheap
price," Club Tsunami cocktail waitress
Kathryn Hancock said. "We have our
signature drinks, like Skittles and the
shot PinkTacos."
"I never compare my club to the
competition, I only improve what I have
to offer," Chan said. "We're always
looking for something new and fun so
we can attract more students and
make itfresh."

IN BRIEF
Campaign Oregon hosts
Hollywood-stylegala
The University will officially kick off a
massive fundraising campaign ata
blacktie gala Saturday atthe Moshof
sky Sports Center.
Campaign Oregon: Transforming
Lives began four years ago and has
quietly raised money for the University
through private donations. Lights, Cam
era, Oregon! will be the campaign's
first public event and a "celebration of
the excellence and promise of the Uni
versity," Todd Simmons, the Universi
ty's director of communications, said.
Thefinal goal of the campaign isto
raise $600 million.
"We will bring together our donors
and say thank you," Simmons said. "It's
also an opportunity to shine a spotlight
on the academic superstars of the Uni
versity in a Hollywood way."
Guests will walk a red carpet into
the event and start their festivities
with a cocktail party. A dinner will fol
low, accompanied by entertainment,
which will include comedic sketches
from actors Sam Elliott and Tim Math
eson and a dance performance from
the University of Oregon Repertory
Dance Company. Actor and comedian
Fred Willard, who recently appeared
in the film "Anchorman," will lead the
show as emcee. Several University
students and staff will be honored
for academic achievements.
"There will be a serious element
atthe event," Simmons said. "We
will talk about the challengesthe
University faces."
While most guests were invited, the
general public had the opportunity to
purchase tickets for $200, which are no
longer available.
Simmons said the event will open
doors to new donors who can con
tribute to the University. He added that
private support is increasingly neces
sary asthe amount of public and state
support has declined.
"If we want to continue the ascentto
excellence, that increasingly costs
more money," he said.
