I've done it enough over the last ten years or so I feel like I can comment....those are places i go.....are they the best? Who knows....but they pass my criteria , and I am old enough to say I have been in a lot of honky tonks, pubs, sports bars, club bars....hell...even fern bars for that matter....probably spent too much time in various bars, but to the point, those are pretty decent.

Shoot Rich...If I had know you were going to be at this game I would have saved a quart of shine. I won't be able to get more until mid October. A few had some last year but to be honest, most were pretty timid with the stuff, and it's good stuff....I wouldn't bring crap or something that is going to hurt people.

Sperk and Howie manned up, but after that it is a bunch of mild sipping.

If you are there for the Jets game, I will have some by then....it could be EPIC!

I think I might have suffered from frost bite at the Chargers game last year had it not been for the mild sips of the "shine"....

Head downtown to Bob Golic's Sports Bar http://www.bobgolics.com/. Being downtown you will get the big time feel of the crowd passing through before and after the game. There are plenty of bars on West 6th to dart in and out of for a great time.

leaving tomorrow AM on the Harley ..............visit family in Ytown and then do Cleveland Sat and Sunday

No doubt, but when you are tough, it is a piece of cake.

I stay out in Westlake a lot. When I am looking for a game, I go to Cletes...on Detroit Road at Dover Center Rd, or to Winking Lizard, on Detroit just over the county line in Avon.

Overall, I would give Cletes the nod. The Lizard isn't as nice as it's downtown location....less seating around the bar area.
