Superbowl Beers?

QuadLeo

I was in the states over the xmas and spent most nights watching nfl games and the atmosphere in the bars was great. Just wondering what's a good place to watch the superbowl in Dublin? Thought it might be a good excuse to have a boards Superbowl beers thing if there was enough interest. Any takers?

pretty sure the Woolshed on Parnell Street is the place to be on Superbowl night...they're staying open for the whole thing although they do have to stop serving at 2.30am.....i know thats where me and my friends are going anyways

QuadLeo

Sweet thanks. What time is it starting at here?

EDIT: Just read BBC start coverage at 11pm.

We will definately be in the woolshed; about 5 of us going in it was great in there last year

I used to go to Captain Americas but will try Woolshed this year. Great that it's serving until 2:30, wasn't sure. Is there a cover charge do you know? Oh and anyone who's been there before, can you advise what time you need to get there to get a seat?

no cover charge as far as i know...although im sure their website can answer those kinda questions for you.

ive never been so i dont know what time to be there for. coverage of the game starts at 10pm on Sky Sports i think and 11pm on BBC so im hoping to get in for about 9pm

Woolshed for me aswell.
No idea what time we're planning on heading in for yet. Probably around 9 or so

Royal Seahawk

Woolshed for me too. Last year there was amazing. Hopefully the game will be as exciting as last years too.

Vikings

Think the Woolshed might be charging a nominal fee in after a certain time, not sure of either but thats what I has heard.

Myself and most if not all of the Dublin Rhinos will be in the Woolshed too... i'll be the Vikings nut with the vikings tattoo, you cant miss me.

Fox1978

Great, thanks guys. This should be an awesome night. Guess I'll cheer for the Cardinals, being the underdogs. Hey, here's a question. Do people wear their team's NFL shirts watching the games or would you look daft if it wasn't a Cardinals or Steelers shirt (i.e. would wearing your Bears, Patriots, Dolphins shirt be seen as weird or is it all good?)

It's all good. With the new licensing laws I'd check out what time they're serving til though.

Wear your teams colours; Everyone will be

New licencing laws mean they have to stop serving alcohol at 1 am on a Sunday night.

Fox1978

I just checked the Woolshed website. Says the following

"Superbowl
Coverage from 10pm
Full Game Shown
Food served ‘til late
€5 after 9.00pm"

I'll give them a call tomorrow and see what the dealio is with drink shut-off time and post it here.

Fox1978

So Woolshed don't seem to answer the phone. I left a message but doubt they'll phone back. I guess we just order several pitchers at last orders if they close the bar early so :P

Karlusss

See you there Boardsies.

Vikings

The Rhinos should be having a raffle on the night for 2x Steelers jerseys if anybody is interested, winner will be picked at half time. We tried to get 1 of each but nobody supports the Cardinals so couldn't get one in time

Fox1978

Oh I'll be supporting the Cardinals alright I'm very pro-haircut so that Polamalu fella gets the :mad: from me

Could have asked me for mine. I've a Cardinals hoodie too. Think wearing both might be a bit much so hoodie for training on Sunday, jersey for the match

I wouldn't want to suggest there was anything untoward going on..... but I was there for the play-offs and, eh, the licensing laws didn't seem to be too much of an issue.... might be a different story for a full house for the superbowl though

Lock in as they do every year. And they will probably stop serving after awhile.

kmart6

So Woolshed will def show it all then?!?!?!

And will the Woolshed be strictish on dress code?...obviously jerseys will be allowed!

Anyone know wat the story with Q-Bar is?!

Chucky the tree

Portebello will be showing the full thing game with drinks served late no doubt for those on that side of the city.

kev_s88

my friend phoned the Woolshed yesterday and was told that they're staying open for the whole night and that the bar is staying open the whole time....i can only presume they have some way around it given that legally the bar should be closed by 1am

or the 3k fine is nothing to them

I'm sure they'd take the hit if there going to clen up tonight!

gerire

Licence for them is 2.30; Standard 7 day late night licence; It's handy for them to have if any events happen late at night

See you all there leaving in a few mins must start drinking slowly

You should have hooked up with the UCD American Football team they had the party in a secret location I coach them lot and they said it was a good night.

Woolshed was great craic last night!!!!

Fox1978

Didn't make it to the Woolshed in the end after all. Decided to recession myself at home with BBC and a few Sam Adams! What was the split of fans? I reckon mostly Steelers? Great game. Some useless officiating though.

kmart6

Yeah def more Steelers than Cards!!
