Louisville game

[Husky40]

Topsail, I was going to mention Dog Lane too -- I love their ginger lemonade. And the Dairy Bar ice cream is the best. They used to offer my favorite (coconut) only in the summer, but since the president mentioned it's her favorite I see it's on the menu year-round.
I've heard about Blaze, but never been there. Is that where they make make your pizza to order (sorta like Moe's)?

No, it closed a couple years ago. I think there is still one in Vernon though -- across from Home Goods.

Oh that's too bad, I had many good meals there. I remember the Vernon location not quite as good.

Having been out to the Yum Center a few years ago for the Regionals when UConn was sent to Nebraska, do not expect the same type food one gets there. Eat, dine, wine before you get to Gampel

Sounds like I just need to eat before I leave Louisville. . We are spoiled here, we have a fantastic food scene. If you are a foodie, Louisville is a great place to visit. You all are not very encouraging about dining options.

Sounds like, other than the game, any extras to the trip will take place in Hartford.
Looking forward to what I hope is a competitive, close, healthy game.

I will be flying in for the game on Feb 12. My flight leaves on Tuesday around 4:00.
I’ll be staying at a B&B near campus. Any suggestions on things I should see or do in my very short window of time on Tuesday? A restaurant I shouldn’t miss? ( flying in and out of Hartford). Thanks for any tips.

Welcome to CT jennyo70! Enjoy your visit

Last I knew, Electric Blue was a strip club.

I'm only there for the food.

The best food is in New Haven, IMO, near Yale. You can also get some amazing seafood at the shoreline. If you’re here for a few days, go down to the Mystic area. Lots to see and do there. We’re not giving you great options because Storrs is in the middle of nowhere. The casinos (Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun) have some great restaurants. You don’t have to go into the casinos proper to get to the restaurants and indoor mall or arena.

The penicillin Buffalo wings are my favorite.

Indeed. Ranked #1 actually. A few years outdated, however.

Nothing great around Storrs, however there's something so friggin awesome about eating at Willimantic Brewing Co. (aka Willy Brew). The food isn't fantastic, but good enough. You go to have a nice dinner with some really great friends in a very old, historic building. Don't be surprised if your neck hurts after looking up and around the entire property.
