MUST-EAT: Mother Bear's Pizza made People's Best Pizzeria list -- and for good reason. Eleven bucks buys you a 10" pie, breadsticks, a two-liter drink and two of MB's famous brownies.

DOSE OF CULTURE: The Indiana University Art Museum is a step above your typical campus art collection: It houses a handful of original Dalis and Picassos.

RULE #57: Technically it's a dry campus. (Riiiiight.) Seriously, though, there's no drinking on Sundays.

MUSIC MUST-STOP: Mellencamp Pavilion. Small Town rocker and Bloomington resident John Mellencamp donated the indoor sports facility and is known to organize pick-up football games inside.

GETTING AROUND: Hoosiers do it the old-fashioned way -- by foot -- thanks to an old rule that has kept the tree count high and the roads limited.

TICKET MASTER: At www.thehoosierweb.com you can usually find tix -- and possibly a ride to the game for out-of-towners.

ONLY AT INDIANA: The Hoosiers stake claim to inventing, a Jenga-like drinking game that involves balancing -- oh, like you don't know.

POSTGAME: Nick's English Hut, which provides silver Biz buckets, is the place to drown in postgame tears and Sink the Biz.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR: Ohio State at IU men's soccer, Oct. 23; Purdue at IU football, Nov. 19; Duke at IU basketball, Nov. 30 (remember Jay Williams's missed FTs last time they played?); the Little 500, April 21-22.

PACK YOUR: Portable TV, if you're planning on visiting Memorial Stadium. The last time the football team had a winning season, Full House was still on the air.

RITE OF PASSAGE: Make like one of Breaking Away's cutters: Drop trou at any of the local quarries and take a dip.
