The first time I ever drank was my 21st birthday, please hold the Captain America and Boy Scout jokes until later in the comments, and the first place was Jake’s Roadhouse. If that were the only thing I’d ever experienced at Jake’s it would be enough for it to hold a special place in my heart, but that’s not all that happened there. On Dec. 11, 2009 I met my future wife at Jake’s Roadhouse. On August 4th, 2018 Jake’s Roadhouse closed for good. That leaves Purdue students with Where Else?, Brother’s, and Harry’s as far as on campus bars go.
