What comes after your first week of classes? For UW-Madison students, it was a can't-miss weekend of entertainment: a Kane Brown concert that lit up Library Mall and streamed live on Amazon Prime around the world, followed by a trip to Lambeau Field for the Badger football opener and fourth-ever college game played at the legendary home of the Green Bay Packers. While the Badgers couldn't overcome No. 4 Notre Dame on the field, it was still a weekend to remember for thousands of fans - and for students who pulled off the ultimate doubleheader of entertainment.
