‘Where Is That?’: A Portal-By-Portal Guide To Everything In The BJC During THON

Throughout THON weekend, the BJC is flooded with noise, people, and color. In this incredible show, it can be difficult to find exactly what you’re looking for in the building. From bathrooms to barbecue, trying to find specific things on the concourse level can be a struggle. Luckily, I spent the last two hours lapping the building so you don’t have to, putting together a comprehensive guide to merch, food, and yes, bathrooms at the BJC during THON weekend.

We will give you the name of a location or stall, along with the portal in the BJC closest to it. We will update this post if any new locations pop up, or if anyone moves around. Let us know in the comments if we missed anything, or if there’s a location you’d like us to scout in advance of your arrival to the BJC.
