The Snackpalace name originally came from Sean's old friend Matt Turpin who deemed Sean's place the Snackpalace due to the copious and always readily available amount of snacks present at all times. There was quite a long stretch where Matt and Sean, along with many other of their friends, would wind up wandering back to Sean's place hungry in the wee hours of the night/morning with huge appetites but little motivation to cook up something complicated.  Obviously, snacks were the solution to this. This all actually took place at a condo Sean used to own on 10th Ave, but he carried the name over to the current house which is often referred to as Snackpalace v2. As you can probably tell from the rest of this wiki, Snackpalace and members of it are still all about the tasty food and snacks.
