The Essen House... nothing beats drinking beer out of boots

Smut and Eggs (never experienced this one)

Only place I've seen someone dressed as a fish protesting the cruelty of fishing (PETA)

Take a course on 911 and learn how Bush caused it all

Or, don't go to class and become ineligible, but hell one third of your team it too so who cares!

Second!

Though I believe you can do the same at Hofbrau on Old World Third, so who needs Madison?

They lead the country in red blazers worn.

Pretty campus, my wife has family there, the farmers market around the capital.    May the nuke fall there first.

mifflin st. block party is pretty fun... if you're an under-ager or like to pee on the side of strangers' houses.

They've drawn record setting crowds to their annual Riot Festival.  I believe they put in on around Halloween every year.

Q: How many UW grads does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: 7 - one to put it in, then the other 6 to stand around and gloat about how incredibly Ivy League they made that look.

Don't forget the 15 to protest the use of electricity, the harmful effects of lightbulbs, the pollution created by making the lightbulb, the working conditions in the factory, and for good measure, animal rights.  Also, 2 anti-war protesters are hanging out for the camaraderie.

I liked this one:

Q: How many UW students does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: 7- One to screw it in while the other 6 try to make a bong out of the old one.

or:
Q: Why don’t they celebrate Christmas in Madison?
A: You cant find a virgin and three wise men.

This is easily the best thread in the short history of this site!

If anyone gets the Madison - Gary bumper stickers going, please let me know and send me one!

As for my contribution:
I once had 2 1/2 pitchers of Swampwater there, after a Warriors 81-65 win and a Tony Miller 18-10-10 triple double
I have a buddy who works for the Mallards, though he enjoys his job with the Admirals more
It marks the two-thirds mark of a trip from my house to watch a far superior basketball team play

Hey...if anyone gets that bumper sticker going, remember where it started...I want the first one!

And of course the number one reason to love Madison:

Anything that's not perfect can be fixed with PhotoShop.

DC wins the award for post of the day. That may be better than the bumper sticker.
