Just tell them you 1) have incredibly good taste, or 2) a staring problem... Their choice!

Why go to a bar on game weekends when you can tailgate?

To see people outside of your normal circle?
To hit on women who aren't close friends or relatives?
To visit old haunts from our college days and marvel at what has/hasn't changed?
To let someone else do the cooking?
To see catch up with people I worked with in college who are now bar owners themselves?

Lots of reasons.

Not to mention that tailgating wasn't always as big as it is now. For some of us of a certain vintage, the bars are part of long standing game weekend routines.

Chicken isn't just a bar, it is a state of mind

New army may never grasp this

You said it Harry!!! Except for the part about not hitting on good friends and relatives. Seen alot of that in Duddley's.
Cooter Brown is my designated driver.

Is the Ptarmigan still a frat daddy place?

Mad Hatter's is my favorite spot.

I almost died at the turtle the night I graduated. I may or may not have urinated in the Northgate garage elevator.

The Chicken is fine, but I do imagine there is a lot more at Northgate now than there was when the Chicken gained its popularity. I can't really think of anything it offers that I can't get somewhere else.

Beer? I'll go to O'Bannons and get better stuff for not much more money. If I want food with my alcohol, I'll get better food at Chimy's or The Corner for about the same price. I can even find free pool tables elsewhere on Northgate. (I'll admit the Chicken's are nicer and of higher quantity)
