Anywhere but Hawaii is OK with me. No more Hawaii on Christmas Eve. Other than that I do not care. St. Pete's or NO would be fun. Six months from now no body remembers who you played or the score. They do remember you went to a bowl.

You can't buy Shiner in Michigan. Can't buy Yuengling either. How about some PBR? There's no "good beer" up there, unless we're talking 12 bucks a 6 pack beer.

Shiner and yuengling is what you cite as the the main 'good beer's options?

For reasonably priced game day beers, hell yes. A beer snob I am not though, nor am I a doctor, lawyer,banker or other guy with a big paycheck. If somebody stops by and I have a cooler full of beer, it oughta be something that you can use for beer pong, etc. I mean do you want to play some beer pong with Newcastle? or some Microbrew? No, you'd be wasting it. You don't do shots with Johnny Walker Blue label either unless you've got money to burn, I don't. To be honest Old Style or something like that would be better for that occasion.

Big East/future ACC opponent. I can dig that. But there will be about 15,000 people there.
