I will bring some Busch Light to share with the visitors. White Highlander in Tailgreat Park - always parked in front of the river. Stop by and have a beverage!

Hope your crew has a great time in Athens!

Ames was a top notch host when I went through there this summer on RAGBRAI. Was awesome that all the bikers were able to ride up into and through Jack Trice Stadium.

3 of us will be driving to Athens for the game. Have motel, game tickets, and tailgating spot lined up already.
Will we be OK flying an ISU flag in the Pepsi tailgate area as long as we aren't a-holes? (We aren't, we're all 40yr old mellow beer drinking dads)
Also, some advice on bars that we wouldn't feel like creepy dudes on Friday night? Best place for visitors to eat?
Currently planning on heading to Cincy after the game to double down and see what they look like since we'll play them mid Oct.

Watched your game vs SDSU. Sucked to see the QB possibly get hurt. I think if stayed in you probably don't have near the turnovers and get a win.

The gambling issues have taken out some starters for us. Our offense is a crapshoot this year. No named QB or RB. Defense will be legit like usual. Special teams typically have been mediocre to bad under this regime.

Thanks for letting me join/post.
All good recommendations here, I’ll add if you are looking to hangout at a bar Friday night Cats eye saloon on court street is a good bet. It’s mostly an older crowd but still has that college bar feel. Hope you enjoy your stay!

Is that still the Browns bar? Had a lot of good times, and free cake there.

Well I had a good time in Athens. You all have a quaint town. What a college town should feel like.

Went to the bar side of Jackie Os at beginning and end of the night. Blackened chicken nachos were great.
Thought about going to the Union because it sounded like live music but didn't know if it was middle aged guy appropriate or not.

Stopped at Luckys for a while along with Pawpurr.

Went to OBettys for a late night dog.

Got off the beaten path a little and found Smiling Skull. REALLY cheap beer.

Had a good time tailgating/game other than outcome for us. Our offense is just so brutal.

Stay healthy, friends.

Glad you enjoyed Athens. Road trips are often an adventure. You should have poked your head in at the Union.
