Best A2 Bar to Watch Night Games?
So, I'm from Columbus and am coming up with some of my boys for the Sparty game. Coming Friday, leaving Sunday. What do you guys think is the best spot on campus to catch the night football games that actually has audible game sound, and not music blasting through the speakers?
Thanks!

Look there is a sticky for this topic, I'm not bashing you, but this is abouth the 4th "what bar do I go to" thread in the last couple of days.

You ask me to go to a sticky that is the exact opposite of what I'm looking for.
The sticky mentions friendly bars OUTSIDE Ann Arbor. I am looking for a bar on campus that plays the sound and not music. I'm coming from Columbus and want to watch some games and hang out with a UM crowd. It was a pretty specific request, if you read it.

Ease up. The map in the sticky includes Ann Arbor bars too.
If you want sound, I suggest some place like the Arena.
At Scorekeepers, you might have a shot until 10. It's kind of a big weekend, and they may get over run with requests to switch to music.
You might even want to venture slightly off campus to some place like Damons (If it even exists any more).

Well then reply in the thread asking about a good bar in A2, That is what that thread is for. No need to clutter the message board with useless crap.

First of all, the thread you linked is not a sticky. We don't have stickies on this site besides "Useful Stuff". Also, no one is going to respond to thread that is more than a year old. So until we have stickies around here why don't you be more considerate to your fellow Michigan fans.

I guess just blind. My apologies to the above poster. I've been reading the board for 3 years now and never new it had it's own page. Thought the MGOBOARD drop-down menu was just that. Good to know.

I probably didn't need to go so over the top. Apologies.

The Arena does do live bands a lot, though (and set the band up where the booths and huge TV is). If there is a band, you wouldn't be able to hear the game, but there are still a ton of TVs. I'm not sure what nights it has bands play.
I'd suggest the Arena (if no bands), BWW, Arbor Brewing Company, Bar Louie (I'm not sure if they play sound, though) or a place farther away (Guy Hollerins, Damon's).

I'd do Ashley's. Not a sports bar by any means but the game will be on, and there isn't a bar that you've been to that has a better beer selection.
