[Husker] BCS show

[Shawn Sherlock]

I haven't been to a Northwestern game since they beat The OSU. I moved from Evanston to Kansas City the next Fall. Between the changes at my bank and UNL moving to the Big Ten, I am really regretting my move. 

Enjoy Evanston, I cannot speak to the cheerleaders, but the bar scene is finally coming around (I would recommend the Celtic Knot) and the downtown is nice to walk around.
