Tiger Watch in Midtown

GO TIGERS...Mizzou or Memphis?

The mascot is not the only thing these 2 colleges have in common. They both are looking for a win in tonight's game so they can make it that Elite 8 and get their school one step closer to the NCAA championship. My heart is screaming "M-I-Z...Z-O-U" but my head is saying "damn Memphis is gone blow Mizzou right back to Columbia." When the University of Missouri hired there first African-American Head Coach (in any sport), Mike Anderson three years ago today, nobody could have guessed that he would be spending his 3rd Anniversary with team in the Sweet 16. Anderson has worked wonders with Missouri Basketball and the he is deserving of this opportunity. Since Memphis is just up the muddy Mississippi, we know that Memphis fans will be out and about tonight as well. Whichever Tiger you are rooting for just make sure you do it in Midtown St. Louis.

Get some Education for your Stomach and watch the game at The U (3108 Olive) and enjoy some of that good food they cook up all night long. I was never a big fan of sandwiches but I swear the folks at The U have changed me. That loaded Cheesesteak is the truth. They will have the game on tonight and they have they have the bucket special going on. $10 for 6 Beers (Bud, Bud light or Select) and $15 for any other random beer. The game starts at 8:30 so make sure you stop in early to get your food. If you want to do a little more than eat you can always go right next door to The Loft who is having a viewing party with HOT 104.1. And across the street LUSH is having a Networking event sponsored by a variety of local professional organizations including the Urban League Young Professionals.
