Ride the Rail Ridicule

The one where my friend competed in a "ride the rail" competition to finish a list of 30 beers and the bar lost her card so she had to start over....






For those of you who aren't familiar with Ride the Rail, it's a dirty marketing scheme at one of our campus bars, Legends.  You are provided with an empty card that has twelve different types of beer and three mixed beers with three columns for each beer.  Once completing the card, you are awarded with a tshirt and you get your name on the wall of the bar. 

As always, my roommates and I got incredibly addicted to this and worked toward this goal on most Tuesdays and even God's day of rest, Sundays.  We always had a good time, until something happened last week.





I change my mind, I love them. 




And dinner on the house! 


To clarify, she did try two different times with two different bartenders to find her card so we weren't complaining for nothing.  Here it is!

Alma Mater Mayhem

The one where I finally graduated college and my university removed the historical "graduation picture" statue.... For those of you who don't attend U of I, the Alma Mater was removed from campus this year for renovations and repairs.  As graduation approached, we were informed that she would not return in time which caused an uproar, as it's the iconic place to take your picture in a cap and gown.   Got my response!   The letter caught her attention (she CC'd the Dean of the College of Business and the Event Director of the Alumni Association).  We'll see what they plan for this alma mater event.

Half Marathon Meltdown

The one where I ran the Michelob Ultra Half Marathon and they ran out of beer by the time I finished... .  The deserted and very dry Michelob Ultra "Party" grounds Although the Michelob grounds went dry, we still managed to get some beer from some generous race-goers who thought ahead and brought their own!
