UFC 119

Former UFC Welterweight champion, Matt Serra is talking about his rematch with his fellow "Ultimate Fighter" season four cast mate, Chris Lytle at UFC 119 in Indianapolis, Indiana.




Speaking via ESPN.com, Serra said:




“Last time it was two guys fighting not to lose, and this time it’s two guys looking to take each other out. And I’ll tell you something: Not only is he fighting in a rematch in a fight where he lost a very close decision with a lot on the line, but he’s fighting in his hometown, in front of everybody he’s ever known from his family on. He’s going to want to make a statement … You know, we’re both durable veterans that are well-rounded. We’re both not easy to get out of there. I know he’s thinking the same thing as me, if he’s able to take me out, that’ll say something. And I’ll tell you right now, there’s nothing I want more, either … To me, it’s all about the journey. The glass is always half full for me. Life is short and so am I.”




Serra is coming off a first round victory over Frank Trigg at UFC 109 in February. Prior to that Serra suffered back-to-back losses at the hands of Matt Hughes and Georges St-Pierre.

The Varsity Has Gone Insane

We didn't think we were crazy, but we have to be nuts to sell mugs of domestic beer for only 99 cents plus tax and pitchers of domestic beers for only $4.99 plus tax every weekday from 6am till 2pm.

That's not all, we are down right certifiable for letting you choose any mug of beer you want for only $3 any weekday from 2pm till 6pm. You want a Mirror Pond? $3 please. Oh a Dead Guy Ale you say? Let me think..........Oh yeah, that's $3.

Take advantage of our out of mind experience before our psychiatrist finally finds the right mix of meds to make us sane again.

National Tequilla Day

National Tequila Day is July 24th – a time for all Americans to celebrate tequila in all its forms, from the incredibly cheap rocket fuel that powers house parties when the keg runs dry to the complex spirits designed to be sipped and savored like a fine whiskey.
And why shouldn't it have its own day? Appreciation for what's considered North America's first native-born distilled spirit is at an all-time high. In fact, the Mexican liquor is the fastest growing distilled spirits category in the U.S.
It's no surprise. Tequila has been exported to the U.S. since the late 1800s, but only recently have the liquor-drinking masses have found much use for it beyond day-glo hued margaritas and mind-numbing benders. Now there are premium and super-premium tequilas as smooth and nuanced as any single-malt scotch that have been embraced by the American market, with the category growing by nearly 10 percent per year since 2002.

At The Varsity we have a large selection of tequilas for you to enjoy, and in honor of National Tequila Day we are making all Tequila Cazadores Reposado doubles only $5.50.

Tequila Cazadores Reposado
