Happy St. Paddy's Day!
In honor of the holiday--and the fact that it's spring break and Chico's
nightlife is a little less hectic--CN&R staffers went out on the town. We
played darts at Shenanigan's, ping-pong at the Oasis, competed in a drunken
spelling bee at the Maltese. It was 10 bar games at 10 different bars and I
came out ... well, I won three of them, which ain't too bad. You'll have to
read the story to get the full run-down!
Naturally, there's much more in this week's issue, so, read on!
