Re: Up Next: Drake

It should be that way for every game....

And that's why I said it - especially when one of your opponent's colors in white.

Re: Up Next: Drake

I don't have any white UNI shirts. Purple, gold, gray, black. 80% purple.

Re: Up Next: Drake

What time do you suppose one would have to get to Jethros to get a meal in before the game?

Alternatively, is there an "official" UNI pregame spot?

that sucks my f-ing balls. Hated that place and a guy was assaulted and put in the hospital, more the reason to never go back. The offical place that is.

Have to get there REALLY early. How about Smokey D's or even Sambetti's?

Re: Up Next: Drake

Go to Fong's and get a Crab Rangoon pizza. Or check out Zombie Burger.. all my buddies down there rave about that.

p.s. I'm not trying to restart the great pizza debate of 2010.

Just had a crab rangoon pizza there last night...and again this morning for breakfast! Fong's is small and get's crowded fast...great tiki drinks there though!

Zombie Burger is also great. If you love Zombie movies it's a must.

Jethro's on Forest Ave near Drake is going to fill up fast before the game. I went there two years ago before this game, 2 hrs before tip off and it was a 45 min wait. Get there early!

Quinton's in the East Village would also be a good spot for pre game just up the street from Zombie Burger.

For those that haven't been... Mullet's is a cool place

Of course High Life Lounge and El Bait Shop are ALWAYS a great choice!

Johnny's Hall of Fame official UNI Alumni Assoc get together And yes local Des Moines legend Forey Jacobson was assaulted there but by no fault of Johnny's (I have my official Forrey benefit tshirt from Raygun and will be going to Forrey Fest jan. 14 proceeds go to he and his wife for medical bills) but to my knowledge Johnny's has been aiding the police investigation with bouncer witnesses and security video. it was just 2-3 idiots that didn't like someone b/c he's different, but Forrey is the man!

Re: Up Next: Drake

I vote Mullets (they DO sponsor our hockey team) or High Life. Bacon Wrapped Tator tots are always good! Plus I'll be downtown after working the Monster Jam.

The service there has been lously a lot of the times I've gone there and the food isn't nearly half as good as High Life or Mullets. I've had my buddy almost get in a fight too when some dude tried to take his beer and then got in his face. Luckily my buddy is a hippie and doesn't fight "because that's just not coo man" No, he isn't Jeffrey Lebowski

Re: Up Next: Drake

It may have to be Zombie Burger. I've been meaning to try it and I don't think I'll get to Jethros early enough.

Thanks all for the suggestions.

Re: Up Next: Drake

Jethro's BBQ and Jambalaya just opened up in December I think... It's out in Waukee but its not like Des Moines is that big... I've only ate at the one in Altoona... I still have not recovered from eating The Jethro.

Totally agree on the service. The place is sometimes just "too cool" and you get a lot of meatheads in there just itching to start something. Won't step foot in that place after 11pm. However, 5-6pm should be early enough for decent service, however, you may want to eat before you get there

Re: Up Next: Drake

I'm worried about jinxing UNI today. Drake is currently on an 11 game home win steak, but more importantly is 3-0 in all games I've attended. Hopefully both of those streaks end today!

Re: Up Next: Drake

Why Mediacom??? Mediacom blows and Cedar Falls residents with CFU can't see the game.

The game is in Des Moines and at the Knapp Center.
It is not in Cedar Falls meaning Drake doesnt care about CFU

Re: Up Next: Drake

Does anyone know if Becks or the OP on the hill carry mediacom and will be able to show this game?
