    Rama on Thursdays is a must. But get there super early because it gets packed and you'll have to wait forever to get in

    For me and a bunch of international friends, Burgerama nights are the best! I wish we had the same back home. Gonna miss Rama & playing flip cup

    It's a cool bar. There's not really much of a bourbon selection in Lansing. There's a larger age range so this place is cool for students and alum and older strangers. Have fun.

    Order a round of Sparty O's named by yours truly and the brain trust of Scott R and Dave L. You will NOT be disappointed.

    If you get Nelu as your waitress then order a skinny bitch from her. Vodka water and lemonade. Tastes great and so refreshing!

    When people are playing the giant sized jenga game and it gets really tall, try kicking it over.
