Super Bowl Parties 2014 - Dublin

BKWDR

Could only find a thread for last year, maybe a place to put all the places having Super Bowl themed nights or parties on February 2nd.
Some of the usual places and if people want to add to the list we can update the master list?

Woolshed Baa and Grill - https://goo.gl/maps/qFfHM - (this might be a ticket affair?

Peader Kearneys https://goo.gl/maps/wUFJe-(Although there is a charge on this party edited on charge)

Portobello Hotel / Bar - https://goo.gl/maps/if9gB (last year there was no charge) - This is the one i attended last year, not as packed as i thought it would be but decent atmosphere and the bar stayed serving till the end and there was hot dogs and foam fingers a plenty.

Harry's on the Green - https://goo.gl/maps/JvSVp - Dublin Rebels are hosting their Super Bowl Party here

Hogs and Heifers - Swords - https://goo.gl/maps/NGynF - Will be running a Super Bowl night, details on their facebook, cheerleaders, hotdogs n all and drinks promotions - (This has been made a ticket affair. 5e a ticket available from the Bar)

Dublin rebels will be in Harrys on the Green again.

I figure to watch at home this year though.

Updated the list
Yeah I might be staying local myself, although last year was decent craic, unless the Pats make the final il probably wander up the road

I was in the Portobello last year, just sitting at the ground floor bar though, we were on a rollover from a stag, otherwise I'd have watched at home though which is probably what I'll do this year.

I was just at the big screen down stairs at the bar. They must have been expecting huge numbers as down stairs was open with hot dog stands and stuff but quikcly closed off

Bateman

Yeah was unfortunate, looked like a nicely done setup but didn't get the numbers as you say

I remember asking about the superbowl there and was told the place would be absolutely mobbed. Obviously an attempt to get us to come in crazy early, but in the end we just went elsewhere.

I think that place has a good sound and TV setup but the quality of the beer is pretty poor, pints served in there are sometime close to undrinkable and cost about €6 which is a pity as the location and the rest of the setup is spot on.

Captain America used to do a Superbowl thing as well, not sure if they still do.

Last time i was in the Portabello (not my side of the city) i was in with a mate and we just asked 'oh whats that Caeldonian Smooth' like? Bar man answered '€3.20 is what its like...'

"Three of them please...."

Drank it all night, was smooth and easy to drink like john smiths/smithwicks , killer hangover.

Can't be beat but its good to have the banter with lads who are into the game as well, given that its the last game until September! The girlfriend is up on the rules and watches it too but doesn't get "into it"... ha

Will be watching at home as normal (not sure anywhere in Limerick be showing it) Like the idea of Super Bowl party but want a comfy chair & unobscured view of TV.

Yep, after the last Rebels party in Dandelion which in fairness the biggest gripe is against the massively expensive platters, no matter where we stood we were in someones way..

Dude...

I'm going to post a thread on this year's Rebels party today and I had a quick look through the ones I set up for the last few years. You made this comment SO many times. I wish I could do something to make up for Dandelion's overpriced platters that left such a bad taste in your mouth... it had nothing to do with the Rebels, or Superbowl parties in general. And we took your feedback on board at the time - for the past couple of years we've paid a lot more attention to the food on offer at the event to create the best possible experience for everyone.

You've every right to complain if you had a bad experience. It just seems a bit OTT at this stage.

Tell you what... If you're free this Saturday, you can bail over to my gaff and I'll whip up some grub to make it up to you. We're slow-roasting lamb shoulder for an awesome shepherd's pie, so you're in for a treat! Best I can do. But please... let it go, man. Let it go.

Chucky the tree

Perfectly valid to mention past experiences with superbowl parties in a Superbowl parties thread.

Sorry mate, i dont mean to nag, the previous parties were all top notch and the food has nothing to do with you guys.

Now.. can i mention the cheerleaders

Vanolder

Don't think i'd be bothered going to one as watching from home is preferable for me.... but where, if any, in Limerick can you go to a superbowl party, Flannerys??

I know 2years ago it was 50 quid all you can eat and drink and last year was 6 quid with one free drink.
50 quid all you can eat and drink is a good deal

Sorry guys edited main post, i had googled their night and found it was 50e and when i rang last year the guy at the bar told me it was 50e in and to make sure i bought well in advance.
It it's 6e, thats not a bad deal if you get fed and a pint!

Just called Woolshed - it's free entry for Super Bowl.

Thinking of watching Pats game there tomorrow night - anyone know if the other places listed so far showing the Super Bowl are showing the playoffs, as fancy trying somewhere different?

Thing is it will just be a regular Saturday night and the pats game will go on till 4am so doubtful they will stay open til the end

Woolshed posted on their Facebook during the week that the full pats game will be shown.

They'll serve until at least 3.

adrian522

Well in the past they have closed a good deal earlier than that..

Well at least they're showing it!

As I posted earlier I was looking for somewhere else to see Pats game but very few options.
Annoying that so many places show the Super Bowl but can't be arsed to show the regular season or playoffs.

Was at the rebels party last year had an absolutely great night, Loads of tvs American food buckets of beer huge crowd and great atmosphere have tickets got early this yeary m only gripe with last year was that from when we got there around 9 until coverage started all that was on the tv was Spanish football would of been great if there could of been some nfl action on the screens. All I need now is the niners to beat the seahawks
