Had a blast there last weekend, actually split the game between there and Arlington Rooftop. The crowd was diminished somewhat but I think a lot of people were out of town. Both places have been fun.
I live up north of Frederick and normally go to Legends in NYC...can be there from my house in about 4 hrs...there's a group that i hang out with there...where is Arlington Rooftop in relation to the Pentagon

Wow you go up there for EVERY game? Quite a drive. I checked out Legends when I visited NYC and the folks are great and the place seems real awesome to watch a game at.
Arlington Rooftop is northwest of the Pentagon. It's a real short walk from the Courthouse metro stop. It's above a Subway restaurant, pretty cool place.

I think people get the fact that it's about the money and playing day games on CBS because we're #1 in the country is better than playing night games on ESPN2 because we're #15 in the country.
You bring up a valid point about the exposure to the casual fan and potentional national recruits.
But, if prime time games are more valuable to the network, which they obviously are since CBS is restricted to only 1 because of ESPN, then the SEC should squeeze more $$ out of ESPN and let them have the first pick every week instead of CBS. Give CBS the 2nd pick. More $$ from ESPN, less $$ from CBS, but as a whole we get the same amount.
The #1 SEC football game would still be televised to a national audience, only at night.
