35. Knight Library – Orlando, University of Central Florida, Florida
Knight Library is the University of Central Florida’s go-to spot for great drink deals blended with casual fun, games and events like Saturday’s $1 shot, $1 bottled beer and free drinks and free drafts for singles hosted by live music spun by a DJ. Ultimately, the Knight Library is more a place for those seeking nightlife. They host up to twenty-one hours of happy hour per week, have up to fifteen different selections of beers, they frequently have games and live entertainment on site and they do have some evenings where they host a sports night for those looking to support their college basketball and football teams.
34. Sideways – Fayetteville, Arkansas State University, Arkansas
Arkansas State University’s most beloved bar is Sideways in Fayetteville. It offers a full bar, draft brews, twelve hours of happy hour per week, and up to fifty different selections of beers. Sideways also hosts live entertainment and games, as well as TV and sports package deals for those looking to catch their home team on the latest college basketball or football game. Sideways is also well-known for its carefully crafted cocktails as well as its student-budget-wary pricing. Sideways is a classic dive, so it isn’t known for its food selections, but it does have great mixed drinks to satisfy any palette.
33. The Baxter – Carrboro, North Carolina State University, North Carolina
The Baxter is frequented by students of North Carolina State University for its dive atmosphere, arcade, and vintage charm. For those comic nerds, the Baxter also has some comic books and video games for people to enjoy. It is the ultimate spot for the game loving crowd who has a special place in their hearts for the likes of Donkey Kong and Space Invaders. The nice thing about the Baxter is also its convenience. For those showing up without quarters to spend, they provide quarters from the register and ring you up right on your tab where you also have your beers. For those who were wondering where all the bottles of Surge went, the Baxter has Surge for non-drinkers! They mix it up into a cocktail called “She-Hulk.” The Baxter has twenty-five different selections of brews to choose from. They also have live entertainment and games. It’s not the ideal spot for dinner, but they do have some sports and TV packages for those looking to catch up on their basketball and college football games. But this is the kind of bar that most comic and video game appreciators might enjoy.
32. Slinky’s – Baton Rouge, Louisiana State University
Baton Rouge’s favorite spot for Louisiana State University students is Slinky’s bar. It’s a relaxed atmosphere with a pool table, jukebox, beers on tap and a full bar. Slinky’s has eighteen different beer selections, game nights, live entertainment, as well as TV and sports packages for those looking to catch their home team on screen for the latest college basketball or football game. Slinky’s is a classic dive, and not known for any food options. But it is the go-to spot for catching up with friends with a drink.
31. The Thirsty Scholar – Columbus, Ohio State University
