Giant dump with what seems to be a floor made up of pre-chewed Laffy Taffy and bubble gum from college girls, at least that's what it feels like.
You never EVER want to go but you ALWAYS end up going Best staff in town. The guy named Riley who looks like woody from toy story is the best.
Dirty, long line and drinks without much alcohol but great place to dance and make a fool of yourself.
They literally hold up the line so that it's around the block when the place is empty for publicity? No idea why you'd do that but it's dumb and makes a lot of people walk across the street to harpers
Terrible service with terrible bar staff. They pride themsevles on serving minors and over serving customers. To all those that enjoy the East Lansing bar scene, try and avoid Ricks as there are better bars within walking distance.
Fun spot to go at night. Usually very packed.
It's fun and the drinks are cheap, but it's not a nice bar by any means
Rick's is the quintessential college bar, sticky floors and all. They have live music and sometimes it's the best you'll hear for miles around. They used to have a pay side with the band, and for those who don't want to pay cover and just drink, the non-pay side.
It's a dirty basement that happens to serve drinks and allow college kids to just have rough dry-humping sessions on each other. Yet overall it is essential to the MSU experience and I've had many great times there. My only real complaint is that their drinks are the worst out of any of the EL bars. But nevertheless it gets the most packed.
