A Hamburger Review at Scotty’s Brewhouse

by erikdeckers March 30, 2012

I’m a burger fiend. I love hamburgers, the messier, the better. (The one rule is I have to be able to pick them up. No chili-smothered knife-and-fork burgers.) And I judge the burgers not only on the quality of the meat, but the texture and durability of the bun, as well as the creativity of [...]

Super-size Crowds Not Your Thing? Check Out Super Celebration Sites

by ammagan January 30, 2012

More than 200,000 people visited the Super Bowl Village in downtown Indianapolis over three days last weekend. I was one of them and it was awesome! But I know that big crowds aren’t everyone’s idea of a good time. Fear not, you can still enjoy Super Bowl festivities without heading downtown — or even to [...]
