Best place to watch soccer

[konstantconsumer]

I'm excited about the match on saturday against England, but I have a *tiny* tv and i don't have cable.  Where is the best place to watch soccer in Jax?  I'd prefer something closer to downtown so that I don't have to travel far.

London Bridge is doing a whole big week for the World Cup.  I believe they are opening at 8am Friday morning for the Mexico/South Africa game.

Ha ha - this came up during qualifying - here's the original thread with a few more:

It's ghetto, but Mr Taco on Bowden Road has soccer on all the time.  It's one of my favorite lunch spots, as I can walk there from work and it's delicious. 

I'll be watching the game somewhere on Saturday.  I hope London Bridge has a good crowd.

I would think that O'Brothers, Kickbacks, and London Bridge would be good.

Some where where there is either baseball, hockey or basketball on tv

I work for British Airways and a bunch of us are going to Chicago Pizza on Philips.  I will be rooting for the US though.  This is the first world cup I have missed since 94.  This time around I couldn't justify it with a baby on the way

O'Brothers just posted their schedule on Facebook, here it is http://obrothers.food.officelive.com/WorldCup10.aspx

We've got USA vs. England this Saturday on our 25' wide screen!

Doors open at 2 pm.  Beer, wine, popcorn and pizza.

Well I like both BA and soccer-- and since the strike made it impossible to advance schedule oh-so-convenient meetings in London so that one could catch the game at one's regular pub--perhaps we'll join the BA crowd for the game.

I'll buy a few rounds for anyone who gives me the inside scoop for getting top dollar out of ash cloud delay claims.

This is also tempting.

What's the TV situation at Chicago Pizza, Danno? Will there be multiple TVs on the WC game?

[tufsu1]

They have 60+ TVs at that Chicago Pizza location...so I would assume so.

I have been told they will have 75% of their TV's on for the match.

It's a shame we don't have someplace like this to watch the game.

Oh wait a minute.... We do, It's called The Landing.  We just don't have enough soccer fans here to care.
