Businesses on Grand River Ave. saw a wave of Michigan State University students looking for a place to stay during thecampuswide power outage on Saturday. "We were at max capacity for a couple of hours," said Mikala Meads, a barista at Foxtail Coffee. "Throughout the entire week, students were here just to find a place to hang out, get school work done and try to maintain a normal life." A failure at theT.B. Simon Power Plant, which produces electricity and steam power for campus, led to multiple dining hall closures over the weekend. Dining halls served adapted menus to cater to the lack of gas, but limited options led many students to Grand River Ave. businesses instead. Psychology freshman Moriah Campbell waited over an hour on Saturday night for a DoorDash delivery from Firehouse Subs.Afterwards, she and her friends went for a walk to get out of the dorms.

Auntie Anne's employee Matt Wagdmann said the outage was "helpful" for their business. It was "a positive thing" since it brought in so many customers. Wagdmann
