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!

If only we could always let Chai the Elephant pick...

Woodland Park Zoo’s Chai the elephant picks WSU to win Apple Cup!
Chai the Woodland Park Zoo elephant has made her predication and the Cougs will beat the Huskies on Saturday, November 26, 2011.



Apparently, she's an expert, this is no mistake-read on...
Gigi Allianic with Woodland Park Zoo says this is the second year the elephant has made a predication, last year she picked the Huskies, who went on to win. She makes her selection by choosing food that shows a team's colors.

Here's a video from 2010 of Chai picking University of Washington to win the Apple Cup.


And here's a video of Chai picking WSU this year to win!
