I think they may in certain stations. I know they have margaritas in a few stations.

I can't recall how many places but many venues I've been able to buy an actual mixed drink. Fairly certain for the Big Ten Championship Football game you can. They had a whiskey drink in Aviva Stadium, Dublin that was excellent. Under $10 too, IIRC (although I may not). I just avoid alcohol purchases in Memorial Stadium so I'm not an expert for home games.

OK, wife noticed this before I did. Why are the announcers so into using Hank Beatty's full name. All other players get their last name called, but Beatty almost always comes with his first name as well. I think it is awesome, and the wife thinks it cute of course. Just wondering if anyone else noticed this.

Did you have a vodka drink too? Or even a lager or cider drink?

Guess a lot of people like the name Hank? Plus, it's easy to say. That's what I love about this board. We cover ALL aspects of the game.

Why Russell Wilson instead of Wilson? It’s a media mystery.

Let me ask people here a question. I know we always say to wear orange as a visiting fan for road games, but if you're going to Wisconsin, wouldn't blue make more sense?

Current PFF pass blocking ratings & P4 rankings of the Illinois offensive line*:


LT - JC Davis (82.4) - 13th out of 167
LG - Josh Gesky (73.0) - 67th out of 176
C - Josh Kreutz (41.8) - 78th out of 79
RG - Brandon Henderson (65.9) - 112th out of 176
RT - Melvin Priestly (69.0) - 67th out of 167


I set the minimum qualified snaps at 20% of season total average, meaning that qualifiers needed to play 144 or more snaps.
