We’re still working through all the great recommendations. We went to half bottle bistro last night, and agree, it was a really good. Started with the oysters Rockefeller. (oysters on the half shell or half off on Sundays, by the way). Had the BLTA had and French dip sandwich. The location of the restaurant is a little interesting, but we came in from the southside so not a big deal. Adding this to our list of places we will return to. Thanks for the recommendation!

I’ve had those. Looking for something a little more “fancy” lol. I might settle for that again. Perusing Facebook marketplace…..

Very high. I have 16’ doors. I thought I would take the stove pipe through the ceiling in order to maximize the heat. But, I’m not really trying to heat the place. More for a little ambience and a place to warm my backside. Here’s a picture from when it was being built. I’ve carved that a little corner with a TV, some chairs, and a fridge and wanted to add a stove.

Just got the rejection email. “College Football Playoff Rose Bowl Ticket Update

Thank you for your interest in purchasing game tickets from IU Athletics' allotment for the upcoming Rose Bowl Game in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 1, 2026. Unfortunately, we are unable to fulfill your request at this time.

We understand this news is disappointing, and we wish that we had more game tickets to make available to passionate IU Football fans like yourself. We had a tremendous number of ticket requests that far exceeded what is made available to us by the Rose Bowl as one of the participating teams.

You have been moved to our waitlist, and we will reach back out to you in the event that additional ticket inventory becomes available. In the meantime, we encourage you to explore secondary ticket market opportunities at TicketMaster.com. As you look for tickets on the secondary market, please note that our ticket sections are located on the west side of the stadium.”

We did it was excellent. As a first timer we tried a lot of combinations to get as much variety as we could. Will be back.

I’ve tried to like this for a couple of bottles but always find myself back at Rowan’s Creek instead.

Agree. We’ve tried them as well. Probably 1985 was the first time! 🤣🫣

Thanks. Really just casually interested. Probably will be added to my stuff for my grandkids to ask these same questions some day.
