Downtown bar offers free beer until UCF wins
Fans lament UCF's performance two weeks ago against Furman.If the Knights can't win away the sorrow, then owners of the Basement bar hope that fans can drink it away.
The Basement is giving away free beer until the University of Central Florida football team can overcome their winless ways. The bar and restaurant is at 68 E. Pine Street.
"We get a lot of pride that we are a full blown UCF bar, owned by graduates and run by Knights," said marketing director Jake Whitacre.
The crowds at the bar have been lackluster this year and last weekend's game against South Carolina only drew about 50 people. Of course losses to Furman and Florida International haven't helped UCF fan morale either.
