beerThe Wisconsin state supreme court has dismissed a student lawsuit over drink specials. Students from UW Madison had sued local bars, claiming that their agreement to limit drink specials on weekends amounted to an illegal price-fixing conspiracy.

The court found that the agreement was lawful because the bars had implemented it in the face of regulatory pressure from the university and local government officials. 

A similar lawsuit is still pending in federal court.
