Ladies and Gentlemen, are you having déjà vu all over again? It's because this post was written before UK's last road trip to Starkville. It's an oldie but a goodie, providing places to go to from a source that (unfortunately) spent time living in Stark Vegas. Enjoy!
If that's not enough to convince you, they've served Alabama, Garth Brooks, Kirk Herbstreit, Charlie Daniels and John Micheal Montgomery.
Sit Down and Enjoy -- If you're in the mood for a big, delicious sit-down meal after a Kentucky victory, Restaurant Tyler has the Southern fixens to cap off a wonderful win.
Applebee's -- I hear they've got a two for $20 deal that's to die for.
Brunch It -- The Veranda will fuel you for your drive back to the Bluegrass with a bountiful brunch that includes my personal favorite, chicken and waffles.

Food
The Best Burger -- When you want a burger and you're attending a game at Mississippi State, it only makes sense to try the Bulldog Burger. If you're really feeling froggy, throw some pulled pork on top with the Hogwild burger. "Hey, I've been there before." -- The KSR headquarters in Hattiesburg was at Mugshots. The sports bar also has a home in Starkville. If you missed it at Southern Miss, it's something you can't pass up at Miss. State. A Taste of the Gulf -- Starkville isn't on the Gulf Coast. To make it feel like you're not in the middle of nowhere, try a Po'Boy at Oby's. A Name Perfect for BBQ -- The Little Dooey sounds like a great place for BBQ. If that doesn't convince you, this logo should.

Tailgate Time
To help you find your way around campus, check out the parking map below (click to enlarge). The biggest and best Miss. State tailgating areas are on the eastern side of the stadium near the open end zone. Kentucky's Cat Walk will take place on the opposite side at the northwest corner of the stadium at approximately 12:45 CT.
Fine Establishments
Does Starkville have a night life? Kinda, sorta, in a way.
You won't find anything like what Lexington has to offer, but a good place to start is the Cotton District. Here you'll find a handful of places to enjoy a cocktail or two, including a place that may feel familiar, the STAGerIN Sports Grill.
Outside of the Cotton District, The Guest Room and Dave's Dark Horse Tavern should tickle your fancy. The Dark Horse Tavern also has pretty good pizza to help soak in all of the alcohol you've consumed throughout your college football Saturday.
