If you’re weighing whether your bank account can handle a trip to Arlington this weekend to watch the Final Four, don’t worry: Drinks are on Badger legend Michael Finley.

All you have to do is get to Texas, bring your University of Wisconsin ID and show up at the bar Finley is at to have pick up your tab all night. He’ll be tweeting out the location of the night @Da_Finster, of course:
Cool River Cafe 1045 Hidden Ridge, Irving, TX 75038 #gobadgers #badgerstakeovernorthtexas #onwisconsin

Been out of the student section for a few years? No problem, Finley says:
Final4 Badgers! Meet me @ Cool River Cafe Friday nite. Free admission and access to the VIP section w/ Wisconsin student ID, past or present

As a Badger, Finley scored 2,147 points between 1991 and 1994. He also won a NBA Championship with the San Antonio Spurs in 2007.
Since you’re drinking for free, we recommend going for a local craft brew like one from Lakewood Breweries.
And for those of you only making it to the Final Four in spirit, the game will be broadcast at 7:49 p.m. on TBS.
