• Miracle of Science (semi-swanky bar, food, smallish)
• Asgard (irish bar, food, big space)
• Middle East and Zuzu (same venue as concert)

• The Field (irish bar, food, mid-size)
• Tavern in the Square (swank sporty bar, mid-size)

ROFLNom Nom Nom

The interwebs cannot run on Brawndo alone. Luckily, MIT is surrounded by many nom-vendors.

Here’s a map of some of the cheaper noms, courtesy of ROFLSponsor Yelp:

Bad@$$

After a long night of drinking Brawndo and rocking out the ROFLTeam, with awesome help from the ROFLutionaries volunteer corps and a special guest appearance by the Mozilla Firefox himself (I’m not even kidding, I love my life right now,) have things almost wrapped up for the conference. We completed packing 70 guest boxes, 700 attendee boxes and the printing of 800 super sweet official registration badges (heck, we even sorted them into categories.) Minor issues like needing 10 extra large boxes, copy machine jams, or issues with crappy web services couldn’t stop our march to victory, and at this point everyone is ready to rest up in the calm before the storm. We can’t wait to see everyone stopping by early at the Asgard tomorrow night, and of course at the conference on Friday. Have a safe trip everyone!

…Oh, and the best part? We should have enough Brawndo on hand for everyone attending.
