We Predicted It First! The Atrium Using Minimalist Arial Font Signs

 

MUNCIE, INDIANA - We did it. We're The Simpsons of Ball State. We successfully predicted something, and it actually happened.

The photo above was posted today (August 15th, 2024) anonymously to YikYak, showing The Atrium with a minimalistic millennial vibe. The once-iconic signs as a symbol of Ball State's campus with big names like Boar's Head, Papa John's, and Chik-Fil-A Express now stands plain black arial font text, reading the names of locations. 

 The image displays there to be a bar, mac and potatoes, revolving cuisine, and--no longer The McKinley Grille, but--The Grill.

But guess what: We predicted that days ago. Seriously.

In our satire report McKinley Grille Honors Bacon Cheese Fries, Renamed "Grill" (posted August 7th, 2024), we predicted that the University would rename the McKinley Grille to Grill.

"There’s nothing 'McKinley' about us without our Bacon Cheese Fries", a Grill (formerly known as McKinley Grille) worker expressed to BSnUws in the report. "Bacon Cheese, McKinley...they sound alike, right? So to honor our fallen fries, it’s just Grill now."

 The report can be read at https://bsnuws.blogspot.com/2024/08/mckinley-grille-honors-bacon-cheese.html, and you can order Fry High merchandise to commemorate the loss of the bacon cheese fries at https://www.bonfire.com/fry-high/.

And now, days later, the prediction became true. This photo shows that the McKinley Grille has been renamed to The Grill.

That is absolutely insane...I didn't think it was actually gonna happen, but it did. This is a major (yet unexpected) achievement for BSnUws.

BSnUws (BSn): "First things first, what inspired you to wear the legendary frog hat? Is it a fashion statement? A lifestyle? Something more?" Frog Boy (FB): " So back in January my friends got me into airsoft, and I wanted to make an impression, so I bought the frog hat. Definitely made an impression also a fitness influencer named mexipinofit on Instagram inspired me as well. But it was just a gag in high school...

The Atrium to Follow MyPlate Standards, Limiting Vivimos and Adding Salad Bar

  MUNCIE, INDIANA - Inspired by the old MyPlate initiative pushed in K-12 schools, Ball State Dining has taken inspiration, making groundbreaking changes to The Atrium. These changes include less availability at Vivimos, an additional salad bar, and the most important meal of the day no longer being served. A post circulating Instagram and YikYak from a student food reviewer shows that that Vivimos is now part of the "Rotating Cuisine" menu, only offering burritos, burrito bowls and nachos. A salad bar was also introduced. Breakfast, however, is no longer an option. A spokesperson for University Dining told BSnUws that they were "inspired by Becoming by Michelle Obama" to "implement the classic MyPlate standards from back in our day". "The MyPlate program states we only have to give our scholars 2 cups of fruit, 2 and a half cups of vegetables, 6 ounces of whole grain, 5 and a half ounces of protein, and 3 cups of milk for what we offer to be consid...
