Iconic Idaho Bar Pours Free Drinks to Celebrate Vandal Basketball

Is the University of Idaho a…basketball school!?

Known as a legendary state university here in Idaho with a well respected law school, the University of Idaho is all the craze these days because of their basketball programs.

Yes, ‘programs’, plural.

Both the MENS and WOMENS teams are headed to THE BIG DANCE, March Madness, after mopping up their competition in Boise during the Big Sky Conference Championships.

Making it to the big dance doesn’t come easy–and both the men’s and women’s basketball programs from the University of Idaho are headed there in a totally shocking development during the Big Sky tournament!

Idaho Governor Brad little quickly chimed in to congratulate vandals nationwide! It’s no longer a ‘maybe’, the Vandals are locked and loaded for March Madness.

The most legendary ‘Vandal Bar’ and arguably one of the most legendary bars in the entire State of Idaho celebrated BIG and the videos are amazing. When the Vandals won, Moscow’s ‘Corner Club’ erupted with insane energy and the bar proceeded to pour FREE DRINKS for five minutes, getting everyone in there that wanted one, a celebratory round.

For programs like the University of Idaho, it takes a LOT to be a part of these national conversations, however, they are guaranteed admission into the bracket under one circumstance: they win their conference tournament.

V’s up!

Idaho Vandal’s Football Coach Makes Online Splash!

Boise State’s Most Underappreciated Star

Boise State seems to mean “football” for most, right? On a national stage, after all, it’s the blue turf and the success that the Broncos have had on it that made the university a household name. What happens on the hardwood, however, is far from appreciated at the level that it should be. Leon Rice came to Boise State as a blessing from one of the most powerful basketball programs in the nation: Gonzaga University. Now, the winningest basketball coach in the history of the school seems to take immediate heat if the Broncos aren’t in the Final Four. Spoiled by wins on the football field, fans seem to expect the same of the basketball program but when the investment in basketball is so much less than football–can you really have these types of expectations!?

Shopping for fashion…in the Treasure Valley.

What comes to mind? Do we have enough options to keep your closet stocked and trendy, or do you rely on the internet for that?

Thanks to The Village at Meridian, tons of new and large clothing brands have come to our area that otherwise, have not been options for in-person shopping. But what is missing? We still don’t have a Zara, for example.

One ‘trendy’ and popular clothing line that does NOT have a permanent location in Idaho has decided they’re going to be ‘popping up’ and you guessed it, it’s going to be at The Village at Meridian.

Have you ever heard of ‘Lonely Ghost’? The streetwear brand is easy to spot around town, frequently. The brand touts a goal of inclusivity and positivity in the ‘streetwear space’.

The webpage dedicated to Lonely Ghost’s Meridian Pop-Up says the following:

Boise, we’re coming back! If you were there last time, you already know this isn’t just a pop-up. It’s the kind of pop up everyone talks about after. The people, the experience, the energy. And if you missed it the first time? Here’s your opportunity to right your wrong. Bring your friends. Bring your heart. Bring the version of yourself that’s been craving something real. We’ll be there—waiting with open arms, new pieces we made just for this, and maybe even a few surprises.

One of the most popular critiques online so far? The location isn’t in Boise–it’s in Meridian!

Come on, Lonely Ghost…give Meridian their flowers!

Expect the pop-up location to be popular and BUSY! The event will be held on April 17th and 18th from 10:00 in the morning until 9:00 at night, both days.

The exact address of the pop-up is: 2126 N Eagle Road, Suite 120, Meridian ID 83646
