Recs on restaurants or bars?

Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*

I do remember a lot of the tailgating happening in grassy areas, but that may have changed.

They have an ice cream place in an ag building that is awesome

can't recall her name but she complained about the dog poop in her subdivision here which became a contentious topic. her husband hates FURG more than me.

there's a decent craft beer called Buddie's.

I was there in 1988. I'm no help, but I remember it was fun*

Brandon Schrock of Laredo, Texas, told the federal government that his employer was “poop,” and his occupation was “pooper.”

I tailgate next to Olin Health Center. It’s right off Grand River. There’s a parking garage (ramp 6). That’s public parking and then everyone just tailgates around it.

It’s close to the student union and a 10/15 min walk to the game. There’s also Raising Canes and BWWs across the street. It’s also close to Hopcat which people like.

IIRC Rick’s was like KAM’s, and we’re probably all too old for that shit. I liked The Peanut Barrel.

I thought it was weird that their website says the lots open at 11 for games after 6p

Illini lots open at 7 regardless of game start time.
