Friday Night

State Street "Night on the Town"

The local businesses on State Street and environs have teamed up to bring you an evening of exploration.  Wander around the well traveled student area of Madison. In these several blocks leading from the Memorial Union area up to the Capitol there are a myriad of ethnic dining options, quirky stores and pubs. We will have two starting points where the evening will begin with the annual Wii competition and Bar Trivia. In addition, Bog Spavin will return to perform for us again! If you’re looking for more, circle around the capitol while you’re at it. Good luck, have fun, and remember we’ll have a few people here and there to point you in the right direction. Dress at your own discretion.

To get a sneak peek at the CSU band that will be rockin' the house for you after the Bar Trivia check out their website at: www.bogspavin.com
