9/29 - IU @ NU - Noon Kickoff!

Northwestern hopes to help Indiana set an infamous record as Big Ten play begins!


Saturday, September 29th – 3:30 p.m. kickoff

THREE locations – all season long

Wild Wing Cafe
Charlottesville Amtrak Station

Buffalo Wild Wings
Downtown Norfolk



The Halligan Bar & Grill
Short Pump/Richmond


Northwestern (4-0) is one of CFB's biggest surprises in 2012 but still holds several dubious college football records. With a win against the Hoosiers (2-1) this weekend, we'll own one less as we break more ties with "The Dark Ages." IU and NU are tied for most losses in all of college football - 632 each. Fortune has it that we play each other this weekend.

Come out and root for the Wildcats to start conference play undefeated. As always, wear purple!

Go U!

Register for NU Club Visits the Blackfriars Playhouse


Note: The Box Office price for these tickets alone is $35, so our price, which includes the reception, is a great deal!

If there is sufficient interest, we wll also arrange a Dutch-treat lunch prior to the show. In past years, group members have gone on after the reception to dine in one of Staunton's many fine restaurants.

You may choose to make a weekend of your visit to this beautiful area of the state. Staunton is home to some excellent hotels and B&Bs, plus the Frontier Culture Museum, the Woodrow Wilson Birthplace and Library, and much more. In additon, the Amerian Shakespeare Center will be performing four other shows in repertory along with The Lion in Winter, so you may also want to see King John, The Merchant of Venice, Two Gentlemen of Verona, and Cymbeline.

To open the 2011 season, the Wildcats marched into Chestnut Hill behind Kain Colter. Today, the Boston College Eagles land in Ryan Field - the third BCS AQ team NU faces. What does that mean? NU is one of the only schools in the country to face only teams from the major conferences. Not only is that turning heads, but we're the ONLY one of those teams to be undefeated! 

Come out to one of our THREE game watch locations and root root root for the Wildcats. Wear your purple!


Go U!

*Why the revised locations AGAIN? We decided the Buffalo Wild Wings in Norfolk is the best atmosphere in Hampton Roads for Wildcats. And the Short Pump location is restored since DJs don't play at 4 in the afternoon. We apologize for switching around the locations.
