Today is going to be difficult to watch and I need a friendly place to watch the game while away from home. Thanks!

The Parlor is twice as good as grimaldis and is just a short drive. Dos gringos is ok for the game.

I love Grimaldi's (here in Tucson), but I acknowledge it may not be to everyone's taste.

It's not really traditional NY by-the-slice pizza. It's less cheesy and less parmesean.

My wife grew up in NYC and has spent many years seeking out the perfect non-NY NY pizza. She likes Grimaldi's very much, but even she admits it's not NY street pizza like she knows it.

And for fans of deep dish pizza ... Grimaldi's is 180 degrees from that.

Grimaldi's is traditional pizza pizza, fresh Mozzarella, basil, and tomatoes. The NY street pizza is greasy crap using hydrogenated cheese. Why would you seek that out?

So why advertise coal fired pizza, I mean, what the shit does coal do to make the pizza taste better?

Here's a link to it, it's also under the MGoBoard tab at the top of the screen. Here's what the map pulled up for Scottsdale, and there were several others that looked like they were within a few miles but outside Scottsdale borders.

Yep, my in-laws organized making Dos the alumni bar starting last year. Certainly sounds as if the bar does it's best to make U of M fans comfortable.

Yeah, go with Gringos. I was in Scittsdale on Notre Dame weekend and watched the game there. Plenty of Michigan fans---needless to say, it was the game that was the problem.

Yeah go to Dos Gringos. Downstairs is always open but upstairs is where they watch the Michigan games. Even on a regular day I go there. It's a really fun and chill place to hang out.

I've lived here for 20+ years, and despite a multitude of first-rate restaurants, I have yet to find one that tops Richardson's. If the game doesn't go our way, I suggest you dull the pain with New Mexican-style surf-and-turf and a margarita or three. JMO.
