The seasonal city of Reno goes through many stages throughout 365 days. Early summer celebrates the beauty of the Truckee River, whereas the end of summer concludes with Hot August Nights. Warm, comfortable weather is accompanied by farmers’ markets, and many other events keep the culture of Reno alive year-round.

Located conveniently near campus on Virginia Street, Fritz Bar and Grill is a significant figure in the University of Nevada, Reno community. Inside the bar, customers have regularly been greeted by posters covering the wood-paneled walls and rock ‘n’ roll music playing from speakers or a small platform designated as the stage on which local bands and DJs have often performed.

Pull out the spandex and grab another turkey leg: it’s stomach-stuffing time.

When it comes to literature for young adults, few books can come to close to matching the phenomenon created by J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series.

Chicago, Ill. New York City, N.Y. Reno, Nev. Three entirely different cities stretched across the United States, all of which are connected by one common feature: America’s Best Pizza.

But what determines this title? National recognition? Coverage from the Food Network? Or something more basic and relative to the individual?
