The Note, located at 142 E. Market Street in West Chester, will host a mechanical bull competition, perhaps an allusion to the "Irish bull."

West Chester University students, however, will be in luck. With a WCU ID, the cover will be reduced to $3. More information is available on the website: thenotewc.com.
