The two-block walk home was a godsend if we couldn't convice someone to come pick us up in the middle of winter! We usually frequented Paddy's, Micky's, Cy's, People's and occassionally MoJazz.
Cosign. I loved living close to the bars when I was in the house, even if I was only 21 for my senior year and the following fall before I graduated. I lived in Ames for two years after I graduated and we went to Paddy's so much that the manager asked my friend this May when we were all going to graduate. She looked at Barry and said, "Um, we've all graduated (from undergrad)." I was never a big fan of MoJazz or Sips. Went to Big Shots the summer before they went under because they had $1 pitchers.

I like the Royal Mile - we've had fun every time we've gone there. Unfortunately we don't go out downtown too much. We do go to Mickey's quite a bit in Urbandale.

The butter cow and other butter renditions are one of my favorite things about the fair. I believe this is the 150th State Fair this year.

AggieSigmaNu361, I'll be at the game watching us get killed I imagine. I love my Cyclones, but I'm also a realist. Our football team may not be fabulous, but we can tailgate with the best of them!
