There is nothing MBA students appreciate more than their weekends. After seemingly endless group meetings, exams, and presentations, it’s a welcome respite. From a brief and very scientific poll conducted in class, I’ve determined the most popular activities are sleeping, deep sleeping, and socializing with our fellow classmates at the local watering holes. I’ve already discussed our favorite restaurants<\/a> and\u00a0our weekday choices when it comes to bars<\/a>, and sure, those are\u00a0important, but this is the list where it’s\u00a0REALLY important so take notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Friday:\u00a0Corby\u2019s<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Remember that part in Rudy<\/em><\/a> where our determined hero finds himself in a good old-fashioned bar fight? \u00a0Well, that was filmed at Corby\u2019s. Corby\u2019s is my favorite bar in South Bend, not only for the heritage, but also for the pizza stand.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saturday:\u00a0The Linebacker Lounge, a.k.a. The Backer<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

You either love The Backer or you hate The Backer, but either way, it\u2019s one of the closest bars to campus. The dance floor gets pretty wild, especially after midnight. If dancing isn\u2019t your style, there\u2019s a small pool room to hang out and mingle in as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sunday:\u00a0Evil Czech Brewery<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This was mentioned in my list of favorite restaurants, but since then I’ve been tipped off by my fellow classmates that \u201cThe Hangover Brunch\u201d is one of the best parts about Sunday in South Bend. Great cocktails, more brews, and really interesting small dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n
