Notice the White Horse name three times in the bar’s wood grain—that’s the bar who bought sponsorship in Blue Rice. (Also happened to be one of our favorite Champaign bars, with really cheap booze, a great beer garden and karaoke on Wednesdays.)
One more fun fact about this strip: the constant vegan-bashing in this storyline led a mild-mannered student to write in and ask why I’m giving vegans such a hard time. He volunteered some info about vegans and suggested I may not understand what they’re all about. Possibly the most polite complaint letter I ever got. Damn nice people, those vegans.
