Dayton Flyers
Sports teams of the University of Dayton, competing in NCAA Division I in seven men's and 10 women's sports. Most teams play in the Atlantic 10 Conference, while the football team plays in the Pioneer Football League, a football-only conference in the second-level Division I FCS that does not allow its members to award scholarships (all of that league's members award scholarships in other sports). The most notable team is in men's basketball, a frequent NCAA tournament participant. Most athletic facilities are on campus, most notably UD Arena (basketball), which hosts the "First Four" round of the immensely popular NCAA men's basketball tournament. The football team plays off-campus at Welcome Stadium, owned by the local (K–12) school district.

Milano's
A popular restaurant on Brown Street immediately to the West of the UD campus featuring pizza and baked subs. Mixed crowd during the day, becomes a college bar after 9. Also frequented by more affluent suburban families and professionals. Newly renovated interior features sleek, "modern" design while still being fairly warm in atmosphere.

The Pine Club
An excellent steakhouse located just off of the campus of the University of Dayton, this is one of the area's most renowned restaurants. The menu is famously almost unchanged since its founding in 1947, with a list of large steaks plus a few dishes that were common in the mid-1900s but are unusual now, like sardines on rye, and liver and onions, but with no chicken or vegetarian dishes. This old-school restaurant only accepts cash and personal checks. It does not take reservations – even George H. W. Bush, when he was Vice President of the United States, was refused a reservation.
Mon-Thu 4–10PM, Fri Sat 4:30–11:00PM$80–100 for steaks, $40 for hamburgers

Flanagan's
A UD bar with a more mature atmosphere frequented by students, alumni, and locals. Well known for their St. Patrick's Day party.
