Arrington fuels rumors surrounding Sports Cafe

Former Penn State All-America linebacker Lavar Arrington was spotted hanging outside Sports Café and Grille, 244 W. College Ave. today.

The Sports Café has been closed since December, and Arrington wouldn't say whether he had any business interest in the bar, repeatedly saying "I don't know."

But he did tell Collegian reporter Kevin Doran to "keep your eyes peeled."

"What is it, May?" Arrington said. "You might start seeing something happen in the next month or so."

Internet message board rumors have had Arrington named as an interested party in taking over the bar in some capacity since the fall.

Arrington's NFL career has been plagued by injury, having played only three full seasons of his seven in the league. His last season was with the New York Giants in 2006, but it ended when he tore his Achilles tendon. Following the season, he suffered severe injuries in a motorcycle accident and has not played since.

The Roster

Travis Johnson Mug

Travis Johnson is a senior majoring in journalism and political science and a football reporter for the Collegian. He's previously covered the wrestling, baseball and women's golf teams. Travis loves to drive fast with the windows down and the rock 'n' roll blaring — even in the winter.

Josh Langenbacher has written for the Collegian since his junior year and covered the women's track and field team. He's hoping he doesn't have to rescue any colleagues from telephone booths in the HUB — or anywhere else, for that matter.

Andrew Wible Mug

Andrew Wible is a junior majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian. He has also covered the men's and women's basketball teams. A confused soul, he listens to rap, plays golf and hunts. And like any true Pennsylvanian, he treats the Monday after Thanksgiving as a national holiday.
