Sometimes, it’s all about perception.
Perceptions can be based on who you are.
If you’re a UW-Madison student, and you buy a keg of beer and charge your pals $5 for all they can drink, you better hope the cops don’t show up.
Just ask the seven UW students who live at 417 W. Mifflin St. They were smacked with 154 tickets and $73,500 in fines when their kegger got busted in January. Police have been cracking down on big house parties, saying they lead to unsafe drinking and crime.
