The DC Badgers are excited to announce that the Big Stick will be the new official home of the DC Badgers starting this fall! The Big Stick is a rustic, lodge-themed restaurant & sports bar serving a unique menu focused on specialty sausages, sandwiches and a robust craft beer selection. They have multiple flat-screen TVs for game day watches, Wisconsin Cheese Curds on the menu, and great ownership and staff to make us feel like we are right at home!
