I'm briefly interrupting the recap of the annual Christmas party to give you important information about this year's New Year's Eve bash.
Lawrence:
Come in early and watch the KU Jayhawks take on the Minnesota Gophers in the Insight Bowl. The game starts at 5 p.m., and it's televised on a channel we actually get. That's sometimes a rarity, so take advantage of it while you can.
As soon as halftime starts, the cover charge starts. It's $10 at the door. Remember, it's New Year's Eve and we fill up early, and unlike most other nights, there's very little turnover.
We'll have snacks, party favors, and a champagne toast at midnight. We aren't having a theme party this year, but don't let that stop you; wear a silly costume if you want, or just dress up in your New Year's best.
Ottawa:
We rented a cab for the night! Call Coopey at the Sandbar in Ottawa (242-8888) to arrange transportation. If you live in the area, we'll pick you up and take you home.
Ottawa is also hosting a special prime rib dinner from 6-8 pm; $12.95 includes a salad and baked potato. Call ahead for reservations and they'll set up a table for you.
The rest of the evening includes a trivia game, party favors, champagne, and the ever-popular cash cage. Breakfast will be served from 12:15 to 1:15 am.
Cover charge starts at 9 p.m.
Back to the rest of the Christmas party stories tomorrow.
