We’re pumped to welcome Joe Grand and Chris Sistrunk.

Important Notes:

  • CASH ONLY at the bar! (Food = cash or card)

    • There’s an ATM on-site (but it’s best to come prepared).

  • Bring your ID! Under 21? You'll get a hand stamp.

  • Trains are real. Don’t park at J Rieger or you might regret it.

    • If you do choose to park at J Rieger, it’ll be cheaper to order a Lyft than fix a squished body. Be safe and use common sense!

    • Coming from the North? Use NE Chouteau Trafficway & Gardner Ave

    • Coming from the South? Exit I-70 at Prospect, then Chestnut St Bridge → Nicholson Ave

  • No pizza this month. We’re as sad as you are.
