Hey all, lifelong Kentucky fan. I’m going to the Ole Miss game and I’ll be in town a couple of days following while my wife is in meetings. A couple of questions, are there any must do things/neat experiences to do on gameday? And since I have a couple of free days, any recommendations for a huge Kentucky basketball fan? I’m sure there’s not any tours of the Craft center are there? Any advice would be welcome. Thank you!
 
This is a mid-week game, tbh not a lot is happening during the workweek in Lexington. You could always do the Bourbon Trail, make sure to schedule a tour of Buffalo Trace in Frankfort.
Downtown has an Art Museum, lots of Murals and plenty of good food.
Wallace Station has great food, so does Josies and Winchell's.
Across from Rupp, there is The Kivorkian, it has a Theater, Bowling Alley, Arcade and good bar foods.
I don't think there is a tour of the Craft Center, the area is under construction with the renovation of Memorial Coliseum so not much to see.
On Gameday, go early to Rupp, have a few drinks at the Blue Martini and mill around in the Hyatt\Rupp Lobby for some good conversations.
Weekends are a bit more lively with more activities.
