Dine downtown at the official restaurant pairings of the 2011 NCAA Women's Final Four!

Those who want to show some home-state love to Notre Dame should gather at Ram Restaurant and Brewery , 140 S. Illinois St.
Champps Americana , 49 W. Maryland St. will be UConn Country. Folks, please keep in mind that these the undefeated Huskies earned the No. 1 overall seed in NCAA women’s basketball so this downtown restaurant might get a little rowdy with fans. Oh and these Connecticut women are seven-time NCAA champs.

Scotty's wraps are the best
The best is that those who don’t have an allegiance to any of these teams, can take a short walk to each of these locations and enjoy the festivities. Food (particularly wings, burgers and/or some sort of fries) and beer is definitely in order when you mix intense competition with women giving their all on the court.
When you’re not stuffing your face, check out some of the festivities associated with the game.
