Title: March Madness 2014
Post by: ggw on March 17, 2014, 05:17:43 pm
Is anyone running a pool?

If I win the Warren Buffett pool I promise to buy all of you a beer.

Sort of a tangent, but: if I'm looking for a place to watch the VCU game close to the Black Cat so that I can still make pizza underground on Friday, where would you all recommend? Is Duffys kind of my only option?

well I'd rather watch at Stetsons than Duffys and if you don't mind walking or have time which I don't think you do I'd go with the Blaguard

but it has been a while since I been keeping area barstools warm so others may know better

Thanks, Stetsons looks ok from the website. What is the place across U St from Brixton? They're sport-y, yes? I've never went inside.

You and walky would most likely both enjoy the new bar Handsome Cock on U Street.

bar pillar has a few TVs, no idea if they'll show the game there.

Nellies is where I was thinking. I didn't realize it was a gay bar, I always just assumed it was a sports bar from the outside. Not that that's a dealbreaker.

yeah, seriously that's always been my experience. I wont accept more than one drink for any individual person because I feel that's leading them on, but I always just explain I'm not gay I'm just hanging out with so-and-so I've never had anybody have a problem with it. fun nights. The girls can dance without getting hit on by skeezy guys and I don't pay for anything.

too far.. you're five blocks away

if you're willing to walk that far go to the blaguard...

i really think stetsons is the best of the options

but it depends....on many factors..

stetsons is more of a neighborhood place..where you might get an affordable beeer..where people watch the games... a lot of the newer places are great for that $8 or $9 beeer...and people aren't going to be focused at all on the game..

Ive never been to either. From a map, Blagaurd is do-able. Thanks.

Dodge City is usually pretty empty before shows, and they always seem to have sports on the television. Then again, it's only one television.

You haven't been to Stetsons in a while. In roughly 2009 or so it turned into a bar where a pint is $8.

Get to Stetsons early and drink shit beer and you won't pay that price.

Two things I've learned about Julian:

1. He drinks a beer twice a year.
2. He's not afraid of paying $8 for a beer.


Happy hour Mon.-Fri. 4:30-8pm and All Day Sunday - $4.00 Bud Light & $3.50

if you been paying better attention, you know that the most pertinent information would be to tell me where I can get discounted top shelf gin and tonic's or single malts. No beer.

no love here for UVA's big win last night?

All memes are rehashes. Rehashing known commodities is the guiding concept of the entire genre.

I watched the whole game and was happy with the UVA win.

My wife and I sized up the players...

"Hey look, there's the guy who looks like he's in the computer science club."

"Hey look, there's the guy who looks like he'll be in a rap band."

"Hey look, that guy's cute but his tatoos are hideous."

"Hey look, there's the guy who looks like he'll be at the next White Supremacist rally in Charlottesville."


My brother was probably happy with the outcome, as his rule of thumb is to root for the more northern team, unless a Washington State team is involved in which case root for the WA team, which is probably the most northern anyway.
