subject: Watch Live World Cup Broadcast [print this page] Okay, so you can't afford to spend the thousands of dollars it would take to make your dream come true and to head out to South Africa to watch the World Cup this summer. No big deal. You can watch it at home, right? But if you want to get a little taste of the excitement of the live game while you watch the world cup broadcast live, then you should consider spending the time hanging out in a sports bar. No, it's not the same as the in person thing, but being surrounded by hundreds of fellow soccer fans can make you almost feel like you're in Johannesburg itself. Therefore, we've put together a round up of some of the best damn sports bars in three of America's largest cities. Check 'em out:
El Guapo
7250 Melrose Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90046
El Guapo is more than just a sports bar. It's also a great place to hang out and watch ping pong balls being batted furiously back and forth across a table. But they also have a ton of TV sets and you can bet it will be big with soccer fans when the time comes. As you might guess from the name, El Guapo does feature lots of Mexican style food, but the truth is that in some ways Taco Bell might be more authentically Mexican than the food here. On the other hand, if you plan to visit in order to watch the game, kick back, have a few beers and just feel like your a part of the action, this is an awesome place to be.
Baza Sports Club
2500 W. Chicago
Chicago, IL 60622
Baza Sports Club is a brand new sports bar in the heart of Ukranian Village. They specialize in broadcasting live sports and have an eclectic menu with a homey, neighborhood feel (think Cheers but with rabid sports fans).With a total of 19 LCD screens spread all over the bar, you're sure to find one wherever you are so that you can watch the live world cup broadcast easily while hanging with friends.
Bounce
1403 2nd Ave
New York, NY 10021
This super cool sports restaurant and bar on the upper east side of Manhattan features wide-screen plasma televisions for watching all the action so that you can watch the world cup live broadcast together with your friends. When you're thirsty or hungry, there is a full bar and a menu ranging from Philly cheese steaks to grilled salmon. Oh, and try the wings, they're amazing!
