The origin of the Pastime Athletic Club was humble. When on a Sunday afternoon in July 1892, a group of about thirty resolute and athletically inclined young Syracuse men met, history was made. Little did these young men think that the seed which they planted that day would live and grow. Little did they dream that the Club which they launched would flourish long enough to become one of the most successful and oldest purely athletic organizations in the country. The Pastimes offers athletic training, fitness classes, business meeting space, party space, a Sports Bar, an 8 lane bowling alley and a game room with ping pong, billiards and foosball.
