Uptown Jive: World Cup Fever

There comes a time when a sport not so popular in the United States takes over our soles and bounds us to televisions, radios, computers, walkmans, or ESPN for one month every four years. Lads and Gents, the World Cup of Soccer (or Fútbol) has arrived, and that being said, sitting on your couch huddled over popcorn and a turkey sandwich won’t cut it for this one. Where better to go and get the full experience than a Pub in Uptown. Black Friar, Old Monk, and Idle Rich have posted the entire schedule of games, opening times of their bars, and drink and food specials that go along with the games. I recommend to check out other various sports bars and restaurants in the area like Christies, Frankie’s, or McKinney Avenue Tavern where they will be showing the games on numerous televisions inside and outside on their patios.

This is a time where we can take pride in our country being the underdog. Throw on a jersey of any kind and support the United States, England, South Africa, Brazil, South Korea, or who ever your cultural heart desires to yell and scream for.
