Nice pub for your school, Bruins!

Couldn't believe that there wasn't a thread on here last night. Big publicity for the university.

It was pretty huge around town here. Definitely the talk of the town along with the Titans and Vandy at 5-0. The papers have been devoting tons and tons of space to it for months.

The Belmont name has rapidly gotten out nationally. Check out the stat below from Google during the NCAA tourney/Duke game last year:

Belmont had 8 of the top 100 most frequent searches on Google on 3/20/08, and remember that Belmont-Duke ended at about 9:30 p.m. EDT. You cannot buy enough advertising for this kind of exposure.
