Blog Description

Welcome to our blog! As seniors here at Washington State University, we've heard the same jokes about living in the Palouse...time and time again...

"So how much time do you spend in those wheatfields...?"

"No wonder you're all alcoholics...there's nothing to do in Pullman except drink..."

...and my personal favorite, a quote from Don James, retired University of Washington football coach: "Attending WAZZU is great preparation for real life. It teaches you not to expect too much."

WELL, while we have as good of a sense of humor as anyone, if not better, we beg to differ. There is plenty to do in Pullman, and we plan to prove it to you. From nightlife, to outdoor recreation, to campus events/involvement, and more, Pullman earned the nickname Pullmania for a reason.

Sure, drinking may be an (albeit large) part of that, but that's the case at most American college campuses. From our last three years in this incredible town, we've got lots of personal experience in finding more to do. In our last year here, we're dedicated to finding even more and sharing it with all of you, if for no other reason than giving you something to share with your parents when they worry about your weekend habits.

Please share this with your friends, and send us messages or comments with any suggestions or requests of things you'd like to see. We want everyone to enjoy Pullman as much as we do!

Cougar Football Watch Party

Football games are always the highlight of fall weekends. Away games can deprive some fans of the thrill of yelling, "And that's another... COUGAR! FIRST! DOWN!" when another great play is completed, but smart Cougs know how to get their fix even when the team is thousands of miles away.

Many local bars in Pullman offered football watch parties for the WSU vs. Colorado game last Saturday, including The Coug, My Office, and Valhalla. They offered food and drink specials, and a chance to see the Cougs win an amazing game 31-27! Watching football is always more fun when surrounded by other diehard fans... and a refreshing pint of Busch Light doesn't hurt either.

Check out these pictures from Valhalla! And yes, Grandpa Butch came for a visit!
