re: Minneapolis recs for CFB viewing tomorrow

If atmosphere matters most, few ideas:

- Graze in North Loop has quite a few TVs lining the walls, both upstairs and downstairs. Usually a good weekend crowd. Also, just a good neighborhood to hop around in.

- Cowboy Jack's is in North Loop but closer to immediate area of downtown. It's a massive, three-floor bar with a big crowd and a lot of TVs.

- There are a few sports bars on Hennepin across the river - Mac's and Ray J's. Could be good stops if you'd like to swing on over to Dinkytown. Only downside with Dinky is Gophers @ 2:30pm, so you may have trouble finding other games at that time. If you do go, hit Sally's or KK. Both will be jammed with college kids, though.
