Free bacon and $1 beer? You are either completely disgusted by this concept, or like me, you think this sounds like an amazing event that you have to try! During my freshmen year in Madison, I heard of this magical event. 2 years later I was able to try it for myself, but it was so worth the wait. The experience of ordering bacon with my beer was everything I had imagined !
On Tuesdays nights at Wando’s in Madison,WI, you can have free bacon with your $1 beer. Salty and crispy bacon right out of the fryer combined with your choice of Coors Light, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Michelob Golden Light or Coors Original. I have to admit this is the only bar that I have asked for a side of bacon with my beer.
Last week, I returned to Madison for the first time since June of 2008. I have no shame, so I can admit this, the reason that I chose to come in on a Tuesday was so I could attend Beer and Bacon night. Eating bacon, drinking beer, and watching the Badgers take down Michigan State made for a perfect evening. Beer and Bacon is one of the many reasons Madison is the best college food town, and I am happy to share it with you!

You forgot to mention that the bacon is fried, which makes it so much better with the beer
Of course I will make that correction. Thanks for the comment.
“i’m going to beer and bacon tonight. i’m more excited about the bacon.” – taylor mathis. this will forever be one of my favorite taylor mathis quotes.
As a Madison foodie, I was thrilled to see your post on Tastespotting! I was walking near Wando’s yesterday and could smell the bacon for blocks. It’s a classic!
i don’t know how you do it, but the bacon looks better than i remember…. edible (when sober)
As a former bouncer there and proud badger alum this made my night to stumble across it!
Everyone love free bacon!
