WE WANT, MORE BEER! 

It has been a long 3 months of summer, and for some of us who went abroad, it has been even longer.  But we're finally back in action and doing our best to cram months of football-less Saturdays and sober nights into our long awaited welcome week. And what better place to start than the first day of school?

Those of us bar-goers who do actually make going out a regular thing on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, beware. We may actually need more beer (if that’s possible) to wash down the free food that accompanies all the drinking we are doing during the week. Bars like Wando’s and Johnny O’s are serving up free bacon and corn dogs with any drink of choice. Talk about hog heaven. Literally.

When I heard about this unbelievable offer, I couldn’t resist. I gathered up all my friends, at least the ones who didn’t mind stuffing an additional 600 calories into their diet, and hit the bars, early. Tuesday nights at Wando’s put the “ish” in fishbowl; their signature drink that contains God knows what in an array of colors that tastes oh so good. And what’s better than getting wasted off a drink that requires both hands to carry? The free bacon that comes with your drink, that’s what.

And even though I have never felt like more of a fat-ass juggling a container of bacon over my fishbowl, which if you are wondering takes a lot of skill if you are tipsy; everyone in Wando’s seems to be enjoying the 2 for 1 special. And if you aren’t hungry, believe me, you will be. Come on ladies, its like martinis and appetizers, except with more food coloring and 80s hits.

Finally, just when I thought life couldn’t get any sweeter, I mean greasier…Johnny O’s decides to introduce mini corn dogs (on the list of my top 5 fave foods) to their late night drink specials. Now I can enjoy shoving my face as the wind blows through my hair on their new balcony that was merely an urban myth last year.

Just a few more reasons for me to love this school.
