Good place to watch college games on Sat? (downtown)

Overpriced
I am sure you can always find somewhere cheaper, but when you come in from out of town, saving $6 on the total tab usually isn't a primary concern.

It really depends on your age. If your in your 20's, then hit the Dive Bar like JC mentioned, its got a sticky floor but the beer is cheap and they get a good crowd, Saturday night's game is going to be epic. If you a little older, Panini's on 6th is good, the TV's are a little small but the food's good and the beer's cheap. Also, you've got Blind pig, which can be dead during the day but they've got the best TV setup around with something like 8 TV's stacked on top of each other on two sides of the bar. Any way you slice it, W. 6th is the street to hit and its right down the street from where your staying, easily within stumbling distance after the bucks win.

yeah ... a few bucks isnt a big deal. the main thing is that its a good place to watch games. we will be going somewhere at noon -- the main game we want to watch is iowa/iowa state. we are vikings fans (i know, sorry) flying in for the game. and two of us graduated from iowa, and the other from ISU.
thank you everyone for your help, i appreciate it!

you could always just pony up the $500 for a $40 ticket and drive down to osu and watch the game in person. that's what a smart man would do.

the osu game isnt the one i was talking about watching. i mean, i will watch it -- cause hopefully its a good game. but by that time we will probably be winding down the party in preparation for sunday.
second ... we wont have a car. and the cheapest tickets on stubhub are $212

No problem man.
Check out the tailgate section of the site...this group welcomes other teams fans to stop in and enjoy a little tailgate action in a friendly environment.
Just remember on all the bars that they can get crowded...and noon is when many games kick-off.

I guess perhaps I am showing how long it has been since I have been down there....but are The Flats dead for game watching or what? It used to be one of the hoppingest party areas in the nation. Has the Warehouse district taken over? Or is that too upscale. I rarely go out to bars to watch these games anyway. I am either home or at a friend's house. That is sort of the deal when you get to be mid-50ish.
