Indigo was the place to be in State College last night when the dance club turned one year old.

People were waiting outside to get in before the doors opened at 9. By the time I got into the club at 9:30 p.m., the line stretched to the diner. The bouncers were letting the club slowly fill up so it wouldn't get too busy too fast.

By 10, however, the place was hopping and you couldn't get a seat at the bar. The bartenders made drinks constantly from 10 to 12, the time period for the specials. All three bars were busy as people clamored over each other to get the bartenders attention. One more bartender at the two large bars would've made the service much better and allowed people to get their drinks faster.

The dancing did not begin until 11:30 p.m. People were milling on the dance floor because it was the only place to that wasn't filled to the brim with people.

The Bellini was a popular drink and it tasted pretty good. It was made with champagne, Bacardi Peach Red and cranberry juice. It was a bit classier than the other drinks they offer and worked well for the featured drink of a birthday party.

Tickets were handed to everyone as they came in the door for the raffles. DJ Kid A.V. called the winning tickets around 11 p.m. Some of prizes were gift cards to the Allen Street Grill and Best Buy.

By the time I left, the party had moved to the dance floor. Less and less people were around the bar because the specials were over. After midnight, there was no longer a line at the door. It was quiet on the streets of State College but it was hopping in Indigo.
