Us being dramatic when wasted after watching the debate

We at Bwog don’t always do our homework, but last week our Irish lit professor implored us to watch the debate “hopefully with a drink in hand”…so how could we resist? Here’s a quick guide on where to watch and what to drink.

The Watching Parties:

You have two options that both sound semi-annoying:

  • CU Dems is hosting a party called “Ooooh Hill ‘Em” in Hamilton 517. The event name makes us want to perish, and they don’t seem to be providing any snacks–we say only go if you’re desperate.
  • The Political Science Students Association and the Columbia University College Republicans are co-hosting their own watch party (that doesn’t have an annoying name) in the Lerner Piano Lounge. The event description promises pizza, and although CUCR has not yet gotten back to us about the kind, they served V&T at their last event. Professor Michael Miller’s ego will also be giving “live commentary.”

Otherwise, multiple channels are livestreaming the debate. Here’s the link to Twitter’s livestream, for example. Enjoy watching from the comfort of Ref Room or your tiny single.

The Beverages:

Don’t get fancy with this. No need for drinking games! We suppose that you could go patriotic with some American beer, but any sort of 40 or tall boy will do. We currently have two Lime-a-Ritas sloshing around in our backpack that we’ll be drinking in a Butler red zone come 9:00pm. The key is to just keep sipping!
