Some food holidays aren’t worth celebrating. But National Beer Day isn’t just a randomly chosen date—it actually marks a historic occasion: the end of Prohibition in the U.S. On April 7, 1933, people were once again allowed to buy, brew and sell beer after 13 long, dry years. What better way to celebrate your legal right (if you’re over 21) to enjoy a beer than by cracking open a cold one today? Depending on where you are in the country, you may be springing for a hoppy IPA or a smooth and sweet hefeweizen.

Midwesterners and Southerners overwhelmingly choose lager as their beer of choice. But in the West, Coloradans flock to golden wheat beers. And it’s no surprise that sunny California and states along the Southwest border are partial to Mexican lagers.[/SIZE][/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]SU News[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [IMG]http://img.bleacherreport.net/img/slides/photos/004/134/489/1e372599273bf7ff08a33b13e2c0b7b1_crop_north.jpg?w=630&h=420&q=75[/IMG] [B][URL='http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2630706-projecting-2016-win-loss-records-for-every-acc-football-team']Projecting Won-Loss Records for Every ACC Football Team in 2016 (BR; Wallace)[/URL][/B] [I]It’s hard to believe, but spring football is already entering its final stages around the ACC. ... ...

The 6-2, 205-pound pro-style quarterback is currently the most highly-recruited sophomore in New Jersey as he holds offers from Alabama, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Michigan, Ole Miss, Kentucky, Rutgers, Syracuse, Louisville, Maryland and Temple. When speaking of 2016 quarterback recruit Tylin Oden, Rutgers head football coach Chris Ash says, "I think we hit a home run with Tylin." (Video by John Munson | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com) Yet he has a high opinion of the Scarlet Knights. "The home state school, it doesn't get much better than that to have the opportunity to put on for your home state," Walters told NJ.com, Wednesday. "I'm interested to see how the new team is looking and how the coaches coach. (It) should be a great time."

Mayor Stephanie Miner is scheduled to announce the agreement Thursday. She said it's a sign of "good faith" and an acknowledgment that the city and the university can work together for the entire community. The university owns a significant amount of untaxed land within Syracuse, meaning city taxpayers bear the price of providing fire and police protection, public works and other municipal services. Of the $7 million, $4.5 million will fund general city services and $2.5 million will go to local neighborhood organizations.[/I] [/QUOTE]
