UM-friendly bar locations across the US (and elsewhere)

ED-Seth: Welcome to our Bar Finder Sticky. The user community has kept this going since 2009 to help MGoBloggers find UM-friendly sites for their suds consumption.

We also got a big boost in curation in 2016 from our sponsors, the...

 

...since most of these bars are officially alumni bars. To find your club and events happening in your area, visit their website.

----------------------------

THE ORIGINAL POST:

A couple weeks ago, I put together a google map with all of the Michigan bars I'm aware of (and also everything from the spreadsheet that bouje has been maintaining.) The map is here.  

Hopefully this will prevent the "where's the Michigan bar in Pittsburgh/Fresno/Topeka/wherever" threads that pop up every week, but if your favorite gameday hangout isn't on here, put it in the thread and let me know.  I'll do my best to keep the map up to date.

I'm surprised that we'd have to share with anyone, given the number of bars in the Fan/downtown... Perhaps worth revisiting?

oops didnt zoom in enough only saw rocksport. I havent been there since we switched locations but i heard we changed locations due to construction at Rocksport, so i dont believe they hold official U of M viewing...

buckleys is a better location, right downtown, much better turnouts, plus they have 5 dollar pitchers for M fans for all early games...

Not just Buckley

Seattle UM Club has two official spots for game watching, Buckley in downtown Seattle and Tap House in Bellevue for eastside folks (http://www.taphousegrill.com/).

Tap House is great because it has plenty of parking and it is very family friendly, which Buckleys is not.

It's the location for quite a few Big Ten groups this year.

East Lansing?

Is there such a thing as a UM friendly bar in East Lansing? I haven't found one yet, but I'd like to. I'm usually left to a small muted TV in the corner while the other 40 TVs at Reno's show Sparty.

In Toronto, it's the DETROIT EATERY @ 389 Danforth for hard-core M fans. http://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/438286
Exit the east/west subway line @ Chester and cross to the south side of Danforth. Un-missable.

M fans here for a getaway weekend tend to gather @ Jack Astor's, corner of University & Front. The women can shop the Eaton Center while the guys watch the game and drink - everybody's happy.

Milwaukee bars

It might be clearer to list Oakcrest Tavern as being in Milwaukee, just because I'm not sure everyone will know that Shorewood is right outside MKE.

Also, it's my understanding that Oakcrest Tavern prefers not to do night games, and so for Iowa (and possibly future night games), the alumni club went to Fanatics in the 3rd Ward (http://theofficialfanatics.com/main_page.html).

Good call on the Milwaukee thing - updated.

Is there a regular UM gathering at Fanatics, or was this specially arranged for the Iowa game?

AFAIK it's special for night games only. If we end up playing more night games this year (Wisky?) then I will let you know.

Keep the Hope Alive - Rich Rod Hope Shirt - www.dwuapparel.com

www.dwuapparel.com

Dear Wolverine fans,

Just want to remind you to order your Rich Rod Hope Shirt before they are all sold out. There are only about 300 printed and have been received rave reviews not just here in New York but across the country. Show your support for this young team coming down the home stretch against the rest of the Big Ten.

The shirts are printed on American Apparel tees, available in Navy and Grey, sizes S - XL (sizes are mens, but women don't worry - the small fits all females). I would love the support of all my fellow Wolverine alumni and friends. They also make great gifts for the family members and feel free to forward along to others. The shirts can be purchased
at WWW.DWUAPPAREL.COM.

I'll be in Charleston tomorrow during PSU and there's no way that map can be right. The bar listed there is the unofficial bar for WVU fans to watch games. Something tells me that's not Michigan friendly?

The Low Country Wolverine Club does in fact meet at Mad River. From what I have been told, it has been a West Virginia spot in the past but no longer.

I see someone listed a bar in Lake Buena Vista for central Florida but there's an actual U of M Club of Central Florida. http://centralflorida.umclubs.com/

This year they've been gathering to watch games at
Smokey Bones
3400 E. Colonial Dr.
Orlando, FL 32803
407-894-1511

And there's no UM club in Key West, but I've found a place called Jack Flats on Duval St which carries the Big Ten Network

Highly doubt this is going to get answered, but hopefully someone comes across it.  Do you know where they're meeting this year?  Or anywhere for a good UM crowd in the orlando area?  I just relocated here a couple months ago and need somewhere to catch the game tomorrow night.

If you happen to come back to

If you happen to come back to this, the central Florida group still watches the games at Gator's Dockside in Dr. Phillips.

We have a group of ~10 people (most in their 20s) who watch games at Grafitti Junktion in Thornton Park.  We'll be there for the Sparty game.  Feel free to join us.

Albuquerque

There's a Fox and Hound in Albuquerque that includes space for UM fans/alums. On a day like this coming Saturday, you usually have to walk through a bunch of OSU fans in another room, which can be a not so great experience. But at least a crew gets together to watch games here - 4301 The Lane @ 25 NE (this is really at Jefferson and The Lane, about three blocks NW of the I-25/Jefferson exit) Albuquerque, NM 87109 - 505-344-9430.

San Francisco

(GO) Blue Light, Bayside (to a far lesser extent), and Underdogs. There is also this place in the lower Haight, across from Toronado, that flies a Michigan flag. I asked the bartender about it last time I was in there, and she said some U-M fans asked that it be put up to balance out the ND flag, and because a lot of them watch games there; I have never been there to double check. Kezar will usually have a smattering of Michigan fans (more of a Redwings bar). The problem with this town is that, unless it's a special event (such as this year's ND game), it is almost always a mixed crowd.

Kezar is pretty pro-Michigan, bar manager bridgit is a UM grad.

True there are lots of fans of other teams there, but there are always M fans and they will always put the game on. Good food, probably the best bloody mary on the city and lots of good beers. Also a great place to catch international sports, Euro soccer, rugby, etc. if you are into that. Definitely right about the Red Wings though, they put togther a bus/beer trip for the Sharks games that includes a suite and a LOT of beer and a buffet at the game. I'm not really a Wings fan, but i still had a blast.

There's Meatheads at Charleston/Decatur. The bar is disgusting though...I might have to go there for the State game on Saturday, but I'm tempted to stay home and watch it. Las Vegas definitely needs a better Michigan bar.

Concur on the Inn Zone Rainbow.

I was there for the bowl game against South Carolina and those are some of the most diehard true blue UM fans I have ever met. Just a fantastic time. I went back for the semi-finals of the 2013 Final Four and it was ever bit as great. 

I ended up Facebook friends with a few of the people there and they are just fanatics. Hoping to take my son out there this fall for the Nebraska game.

Revision - RockIt Chicago

The RockIt you have linked on the map is not the one that hosts UMich games. The one uptown by Wrigley Field is the right one. It's definitely a different atmosphere than the downtown location - a pretty good sportsbar on gameday. Duffy's is definitely the #1 place for a rowdy atmosphere, but this is a good place for fans that actually want to sit and watch the game.

The second floor of Rockit in River North most certainly hosts Michigan Football games. I have no clue about basketball. I drank my way through both the PSU and OSU games at that place.

Nashville...

I'm a transplant living in Nashville, TN.

Half of this city is comprised of bars - surely there is at least one Michigan-friendly establishment!

I've been bar-hopping down Broadway, but to no avail. Volunteer fans, Alabama fans, and (strangely) Florida fans as far as the eye can see; no love for any Big 10 teams. It's an SEC circle-jerk down here.

Two more UM game viewing locations

A couple more locations, and the owners are UM grads, that show the games: Ashley's at 338 S. State St., A2, 48104 (which usually have good times before and after the games) as well as our Westland, MI location at 7525 N. Wayne Rd., 48185. We'll have to organize some UM get togethers in western Wayne County for those who can't make it in on game day or for those road games we're not traveling to.

I went to law school at U of L and haven't been back since 2000, but when I was in Louisville there really wasn't a Michigan bar. I caught most of the UM games at the Granville Inn or Dutch's Tavern (not sure if either place is still there).

Anyone know any places in the Marquette area that would be good for football Saturdays? Ever since I moved here I feel like I get weird looks for sportin the block M when everyone else is wearin NMU gear. I've seen a few M fans, but I have a feeling they were just "trolls" on vacation. 

I'm hoping that there some UM football fans up here, they just put up a Buffalo Wild Wings and I'd love to have an excuse for some wings and beer.

Up-to-date as of 8/15

I've got everything from the thread in the map as of today.  I've also reorganized a bit - there were so many bars, I had to clean things up to make it easier to use.  Good problem to have, I guess.

Is it kickoff yet?  I can't wait to head to Duffy's or Mad River for the UConn game.

And am I correct in assuming that these are all just sports bars that show a ton of games?  Or is one an official UM alumni gathering spot?

Chicago Mgobloggers

I'm back in Chicago after a year long deployment. This will also be the first fall since I moved here that I won't have a Job that has me working Saturday.  I have friends that go to Joe's at North and Clybourn to watch Georgia games, and while its a nice place, there are not to many Michigan fans there watching football. I have heard a lot of good things about Duffy's but have never been there. Is it really a good place to watch a Michigan game?  How is the gametime atmosphere?

There are a ton of reviews

There are a ton of reviews for Duffy's on gameday out on the interwebs - but expect an early crowd that gets rowdy for big games, even though it's a pretty big space.  There are shot and beer specials throughout the game and a full menu.  The crowd is on the younger side and it can feel like a frat house at times.

The local Alumni Association hooks up with a different bar or two every year.  I believe for 2010 they've got Rockit in River North and in Wrigleyville signed up, so check their websites for more gameday specials.  Obviously I can't say for sure but I'd guess the River North location would be the most subdued/mature/adult of the three this season.

I'm very familiar with...

the greene turtle. A few of my close female friends work there as bartenders, but it didnt seem like a place where multiple Michigan fans would gather to. I appreciate the heads up.

Our Alumni Association also meets at Bailey's in Newport News. It can be a pain getting there with bridge/tunnel traffic though. I have also been looking for a better place to watch games here. There are usually small crowds for Michigan downtown Norfolk at Baxters and AJ Gators but I havent been that impressed. Let me know if you come up with anything else.

Santa Rosa, CA?

Stuck on the wrong side of the bridge(s) on Saturday, i.e. wine country.  This place in Santa Rosa called The Ticket is one of those mega-screen sports bars, and may be the best bet.  I called, and the person answering the phones said they'd put on the Michigan game.

The 508

The 508 in Minneapolis is the official alumni association bar in Minnesota (i.e. should be marked in red on the map).

Any in Gainesville, FL?

I'm sure there won't be a Michigan bar, but I'd like to find one that is at least a Big Ten bar or shows their games.  And I'm sure there are alumni bars in Jacksonville, but there aren't any in Gainesville.  

 

Are there any SEC bars in AA?  Just out of pure curiosity; I don't remember any.

In the interest of accuracy...

Over at Maize N Brew, this map came up as a person was asking about bar locations. When that happened, I noticed that the location for Albuquerque is not correct. The Fox & Hound is located about two miles south of the listed location. Thought that would be useful to help prevent people from getting lost.

Going to the Tigers game Saturday

and was wondering what bars around Comerica have the best atmospehe for watching the ND game.  Obviously pretty much all of the bars will be at least semi-UM freindly, but wanted to see where you guys think is the best spot.

We were thinking Chelis or Hockeytown.  Keep in mind we'd like to stay somewhat close to the stadium so that we can get to the baseball game quickly after the Michigan victory.

Thanks for your input, and GO BLUE!

No Las Vegas bar on the list

I'll be in Vegas for the UMass game, and was hoping that I could watch it with some fellow alums.  I didn't see a Vegas bar listed on that map or elsewhere in the thread.  If anyone knows of one, could they please post it here?  Yeah, I know I can just watch it at the Sports Book, but that's not really the same, is it?

Thanks in advance!

Some Vegas bars to add to the list!

Three bars: I watched the game at the Inn Zone on Rainbow.  Great atmosphere: walls painted Maize and Blue, cheap beer, free bagels, gear all over the place.  Somewhat small but spirited group chanting and singing (and groaning) as you might expect.

Unfortunately, the equipment wasn't great - the (big screen) projector was pretty dim and the numerous other TVs didn't seem to have an HD feed.  Maybe it's better for bigger (non-UMass games).  Also, the audio was clipping at relatively low volumes - pretty distracting.

I'd go back, though.  That said, the alumni association recommended the following two bars (unofficially):

Kopper Keg - 3051 St Rose Pkwy (just west of Eastern) or Buffalo Wild Wings at the Galleria Mall in Henderson.

Concur on the Inn Zone Rainbow.

I was there for the bowl game against South Carolina and those are some of the most diehard true blue UM fans I have ever met. Just a fantastic time. I went back for the semi-finals of the 2013 Final Four and it was ever bit as great. 

I ended up Facebook friends with a few of the people there and they are just fanatics. Hoping to take my son out there this fall for the Nebraska game.

Temperance, MI question

There is a little bar that kinda looks like a rat hole, and has been there forever, At the corner of Jackman and Sterns road in Temperance, MI. I have never been there, but it is called Michigan Tavern, and the markings and colors make it obvious that it's a Michigan support bar. Thing is, I also don't KNOW anyone that's been there, so I don't know if it's worth checking out, or if I should continue to have a beer at home and watch the game on my TV. Anybody ever been?

A few edits,

in Philly, the alumni bar has changed from Fox and Hounds to Q's in Old City.

http://philadelphia.umclubs.com/

Also, I went to a place called Brickhouse Tavern and Tap in Central Jersey that was not a Michigan bar, but was very Michigan friendly.

The address is: 4901 Stelton Rd, South Plainfield, NJ 07080-1113

A new edit should be Real

A new edit should be Real Sports Bar in Toronto. Not Michigan friendly per se, but it's the best sports bar in Canada and has every game. Also has a big screen HD TV bigger then most stadiums (not exaggerating).

Michigan Alumni Bar near Pittsburgh PA

Anybody know of an alumi bar anywhere in the Pittsburgh PA region? I've only been here for about a year, and I've been traveling a lot the past few weeks or working on the weekends, but I really ought to find a nice "home base" to watch Michigan games when I am in town with nothing to do.

Any thoughts / suggestions would be greatly appriciated! Go Blue!

Northern Michigan

The Glennie Tavern in beautiful downtown Glennie Michigan always has the UM game on.  Get there early though as many people up there do not have dish or cable so the place is standing room only on game days.  There is only 1 State fan and he is 82 years old and sits at the corner of the bar.  Everyone else is a Michigan Fan.  GO BLUE

There is not much of a UM contingent out here in Stowe, VT...but the Sunset Grill is a pretty good setting and they are one of the only places in town with the Big Ten Network.  The bartender is a Nebraska Alum, so she will be an official Big Ten gal starting next season.

Beef O'Brady's is the only bar we have found here that gets Big Ten Network. They are very welcoming and let you have a big tv over the bar and even sound if there is not a Georgia game conflicting or someone doesn't request something else before you. There are a few Michigan regulars, more than I ever expected. Cheap football beers too!

Lodo's in Denver

I watched the Purdue game here and it was absolutely awesome. Offical Alumni Association sponsored 100% Michigan bar with the game on every screen (except maybe two or three that had the lolCU game on), marching band music, and cool games and free raffle giveaways. Lots of M fans/alumni in attendance made for a great atmosphere!

Place in Naperville, IL

The bar is called Your Neighbors. It's tucked in the corner of a strip mall at the corner of 75th St. and Rickert. The owner went to his first Big Ten game at Ohio Stadium in the early 1970's for a Michigan v. Ohio State game. He went to see Archie Griffin and left a Michigan fan. Michigan paraphanelia in the bar included a massive wall photo of the big house, numerous michigan signs, numerous mockeries of ohio state, and a sticker near almost every door handle that says, "wolverine fans only."

Both the Duffy's (in downtown Stuart and South Stuart) show all the M games. Half the people on gameday are from somewhere in the midwest - and there's always a good representation of M fans - and other Big Ten fans as well.

Royal Oak, MI - Blackfinn

Not sure who keeps this updated, and it probably doesn't matter since almost everything could be a Michigan bar in the area, but I went to Blackfinn in Royal Oak, MI a couple weeks ago after seeing it on this list.  I walked out after about 30 seconds because all of the bartenders were wearing Michigan State gear.  I'm not sure how it got on this list, but it is one of the most MSU friendly bars in the area

Ummm Blackfinn is a State Bar

Blackfinn in Royal Oak is an MSU bar.  It's terrible to watch a game there.  If the MSU game and the U of M game are on at the same time, MSU gets audio.  If Michigan is on alone, they will openly boo, heckle and annoy.  Fun bar, just not for a gameday!

Great College Football Bar - VIrginia Beach, VA

AJ Gators on Holland Road in Virginia Beach, VA is a great College Football Bar that is very Michigan friendly.

I have been going there for about 9 years, so the owner gives me (and now all U of M fans) preference and will put the game on one of the three big screens up front if it is asked for.  Getting sound for the game is about 50/50.  On average I would say there are 15-30 Michigan Fans at each game, even more if the game is on the B10 Network.

There are no official college team clubs or associations at this bar, but the BIG-10 presence is huge.  You will see many Buckeyes in the bar, but the atmosphere is friendly with good natured ribbing.  For MI-OSU game, the owner will kick you out if you get out of hand and go beyond playful ribbing and make the game ugly for those trying to enjoy.

 

3908 Holland Road
Virginia Beach, VA 23452-2805

Hope to see you there.  GO BLUE!!!

I'm living in Columbus now...it sucks.  Anybody know of a UM friendly bar to catch the games at? The google map only shows Dave and Busters and I'm hoping that there is another venue to catch the games with some UM fans.

Mad River

Mad River is officially dead to me.  What a bunch of turn coats.  Place is right by my house, too.  Luckily Matilda and Jacks are within walking distance.  But still, to go from a Michigan bar to a State bar?  It ain't right.

Speaking of, any Chicagoans been to Jack's yet?  If so, how is it?

I recently moved to NH a few weeks ago, looking for Michigan friendly places around Concord, Manchester and or Nashua, NH. I see that The Barley House is one, but is it only for the ND game? If anyone has any help, let me know.

Up-to-date as of 9/2/2011

I hadn't been in this thread for a while, so the map was a bit out-of-date.  I think I've got everything updated now.  If anyone knows of any other places, or sees info on the map that's incorrect, let me know and I'll fix it.

I saw Ropewalk Tavern was removed in Baltimore.  Is there a reason?  I just got out to Baltimore and have been there once before a baseball game and was hoping to head there for football, but I don't see it on the list anymore.

I'm going to be there for a wedding the weekend of the Eastern Michigan game?  Anybody know where I could watch it at 11 am CT on Big Ten Network with volume?  Good news is the Gophers aren't playing at the same time, to the extent that matters.

Cincinnati, OH

The Black Finn is no longer where folks are getting together to watch Michigan games in Cincinnati.  Unfortunately there is no set place right now.  The best option is to check out the Cincinnati Alumni page on facebook.  Folks have been active about marking down bars in Cincinnati there.  

https://www.facebook.com/groups/17974451375/

JLo, perhaps you can just put the weblink on the marker in Cincinnati?

If you want a place to put down, I've found that Oakley Pub and Grill at 3924 Isabella Avenue, Cincinnati, OH always changes the channel to the Michigan game for me.  They hang a Michigan flag in the bar, but they also hang OSU and ND flags too...

AAUM now lists all Official Alumni Bars

The main AAUM website lists all official locations for "football watching parties".  It sounds like these are all the ones that alumni clubs have submitted.  Perhaps these are all already on the map.  I didn't see this link though in any of the comments.

Monterey/Carmel area in California sports bar

Inside the Hyatt hotel in Monterey there is a sports bar called Knuckles.  It opened before 9am.  They would serve drinks.  They would let you order breakfast from the breakfast place in the hotel and then at 11am their bar menu opened up for biz.  It was great.  tHey had a ton of TVs (mostly high def).  Also, we were joined by 6 other UM fans and a pair of PSU vs Indiana fans.  They had all the B1G games on.

Orlando, FL

For anyone living in downtown Orlando, check out Whiskey Dicks on Central (full address is listed below). Owner is a Mich grad from waaaaay back. His son is a huge fan and runs the day-to-day operations. You'll notice a full size winged helmet gracing the actual bar along with a hat signed by none other than Hoke. I don't make it there for every game, but I know that Mich is always on, and gets jumboscreen preference for any big games. For those of you in Florida, you know that knocking the Gators/Noles off the TV is no small feat.

Most likely I will be watching the game there love for you and friends to join my friends and there.

Michigan Sports Bar St Petersburg, Florida

Hey JLo as a TRUE BLUE Michigan Wolverines Fan I truly appreciate you putting together this awesome map.

I used to run a Michigan Sports Fan Club for all the sports fans of The Wolverines, Red Wings, Pistons, Lions and Tigers at Mugs N Jugs in Clearwater, Florida until the owner sold the bar.

I am looking to find a Michigan Sports Fan Bar now in St Petersburg, Florida area. Do any Go Blue Fans know of one in my area?

 

I too am looking to establish another Fan Club Bar in the area once again. Does anyone have any suggestions in helping me create another club?

Damn!! we better Stop the "SUCKEYES" from their 7-0 streak tomorrow.

 

Lets Go Blue

Add Another Bar in Southern Cal

I visited the Tavern at The Lumberyard in Encinitas, CA (North of San Diego) for The Game, 2011. Prices were a bit high, but they play The Victors after touchdowns and the whole bar sings along. It was a great experience, and I would recommend it to other fans. It is an Alumi Association meeting place.

I've been making annual trips to Hilton Head and meet more Michigan fans each visit. I think it's time to put a sports bar full of Michigan fans right next to Mangiamo's.

Hilton Head Turnabout...

If you've never been to Mangiamo's, there is an "M" in the bottom of the toilet. Time for turnabout!!!

Michigan Bar

Maisy's in downtown Baltimore, Maryland is a Michigan friendly bar/restaurant that has the sound on to all the Michigan games and also has the Big Ten Network.  Within walking distance to numerous hotels.  We also have the NFL Ticket for those displaced Lions fans.

For you Columbus guys...

SkyBox at Polaris is not really a Michigan bar... They did let the guys watch the games there on game days and were told that they wouldnt let the Ohio guys watch their games with the michigan guys and that was a lie.  One of the waitresses would talk shit about the Michigan fans to anyone who would listen.  Its a decent place and the waitress Tracey is pretty great but the rest really dont care and really only do anything when they realize they are going to lose your money.

Most of the group who were going was talking about having the watching parties at one of the Michigan guys house.  I can dig up their info on facebook if anyone is interested.  There is also a second bar in Gahanna somewhere thats supposed to be Michigan friendly but I have never been,

Is the Crow's Nest the only place in Nashville for Michigan football? I know the official bar (as of last year) was the Frayed Knot (yuk yuk), but that has since closed.

I mean, I'll drive out to the Crow's Nest, but Green Hills suuuuucks.

Any Lansing area fans have a spot that they watch the games? I am looking for an establishment with beer where I can enjoy the 'Bama game. I am thinking Tin Can West but don't know if that is wolverine friendly.

Went to Fanatics for the UTL game last fall and the management team were all ND grads/fans. I believe they  are closed now, so you may want to remove them from your map.

Also, G Daddy's BBC is owned by a Detroit transplant and is awesome for anything Michigan sports-related. Caught both the Lions-Saints playoff game and the Michigan-Ohio bball game in the tourney there, 90% of the turnout was Detroit/Michigan fans.

Had a great time even though both games were losses...highly recommended, though a bit of a frat atmosphere at times.

Nashville Location Solved!

To any Nashville Michigan fans that don't live in the nightmarish hellscape that is Green Hills, the U of M Nashville Spirit Club posted today on their facebook that Benchmark on 21st is the new game-day watching locale.

Full address: 204 21st Avenue South, Nashville, TN

Best news: it's easily walkable from my apartment.

Finger Lakes area of NY?

We are vacationing next week on Seneca Lake.  Will probably watch the game with the whole Michigan-crazed family (except for the Spartan fan my BIL married) but if someone knows of a place near there where the Maize-n-Blue faithful gather, I wouldn't mind hearing about it.  The map right now shows only NYC places.

A few posts up

The place is called Benchmark, and it's on 21st, across the street from the north end of Vanderbilt.

However, they're only doing 6 games there, and we have to share the bar with Alabama and Nebraska alumni clubs (the U of M spirit club here is...lame), so I'm trying to work out another place to watch the remaining games/the games I don't want to watch with Bama or Nebraska fans.

There are a couple of groups on Facebook you can keep an eye on.

The unofficial one: http://www.facebook.com/groups/20492365847/

And the official one: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nashville-University-of-Michigan-Spirit-Club/112431547869

You can also email me at aaronpj (at) gmail.com, because I would love to catch the non-Benchmark  games with another Michigan fan.

 

Edit: Also, out of curiosity, do you have plans to go to any Vandy games this fall?

I found this site helpful for locating Michigan bars: http://find.mapmuse.com/map/michigan-bars

It isn't the most exhaustive list, but it has the big ones for each city.

For those (if any) in Baltimore, I will probably be watching the game Saturday at Sláinte in Fell's Point. Maisy's downtown on Charles is another great place that I usually go to for Saturday afternoon games.

  Is there anyway someone can

 

Is there anyway someone can put together a more organized friendly bar locations section?  Rather than a thread with hundreds of posts?  I know beggers can't be choosers but I do not have the skills to create something.  Maybe a tab or something of that sort sectioned off by state, city, then broken down by bar with address and phone numbers?  I think that will solve a problem and bring a new cool feature to the blog.  

Also, if people in areas don't have a bar, if you gather enough people to a location the bar will usually adopt the team.  Create your own Michigan bar!  Some poeple did it in Tempe at Monkey Pants.  So many Michigan fans went there for games that they now feature menu items, specials on game days, and even hang Michigan stuff throughout the bar without having any affiliation.

So I took it upon myself to create a website and Twitter feed for Nashville Michigan fans, just so you know where to watch the games on any given week.

http://gobluenashville.weebly.com

and

@GoBlueNashville

Now all 12 games this year will have an official watching location, and I hope some Nashville based fans see this and come out. I really want to reinvigorate the alumni base in the area!

I would just like to add to

I would just like to add to the list a new Michigan bar in DC. It's called Kangaroo Boxing Club and it's in the Columbia Heights area. It's owned and run by 3 Michigan grads and some other people. It's a tiny, more intimate hole-in-the-wall type of bar, but it's a good alternative to the giant mega-bar Buffalo Billiards if you're in DC.

Updates in Southern California

South in Santa Monica is now an official AAUM watch site, and so is American Junkie at 68 Pier Ave. in Hermosa Beach. I've been going to American Junkie and the atmosphere is great. The night games fall into their happy hour, they throw free jello shots to the crowd for every M touchdown, and you get an awesome winged beer bucket to keep for the season. More on the UM Club of LA's facebook:

in the French Market. Not sure about games, but says on the sign that it's a Blue bar. The "M" in Molly's is even a block M. As many times as I've been by there I never noticed it until the Sugar Bowl.

New DC Michigan bar

A new bar opened up relatively recently in DC called the Kangaroo Boxing Club. Used to be a food truck owned by a few UM grads, they made enough money to turn it into a fantastic BBQ bar/restaurant. It has big Michigan flags outside and enough fans turned out that I think I feel comfortable calling it a michigan bar.

 

Caught the Notre Dame game there, and the only thing keeping me from hurting myself was the ridiculously delicious bleu cheese mac and cheese (with free bacon!). They've got a couple of TVs and a projector. Pretty small place, and it definitely got busy during the game, but not to the extent I thought it would.

 

$3 312s and $5 two hearted during the games, which is pretty cheap for DC. http://kangaroodc.com/

Beef o'bradys will put the game on for you and other fans are usually there too. Athens does now have access to Big Ten network through cable so more people may stay home but BOB was always fun for us. If you are there first and request it, they will give you sound unless there is a Georgia game on too.

This isn't news (it was already on the list) but we had a great time watching the Minnesota game at the River North Rockit in Chicago.  The entire upstairs was given over to Michigan fans.  They had an alumni association sign hanging up, and played the fight song after every touchdown.

Watching NCABB in Japan?

So, my son and I will be visiting my daughter (LSA HIstory 2012) 4 year maize rage, in Japan March 18-April 1.  (It was the only time we could go!)

My personal history- LSA - 76, MBA 86 , and first started going to games while my sister was attending LSA 71.

My son, not an alumni, but the first basketball game he ever saw in person, Robert Traylor smashed the backboard.

In other words, IS THERE ANYWHERE TO SEE UM IN THE NCAAs in Tokyo, Kyoto or Hiroshima?

Help a desperate alumni out!

This is a great resource.

When I first moved to Charlotte from Ann Arbor, the place to go for Michigan games was a bar in a  non-descript strip mall far from the madding crowd of  the city. But that location, Coach's, has long since been vacated for an uptown bar run by a very accommodating Michigan fan, owner of Tavern on the Tracks in a now trendy area.

It is a great place to watch a game. Unfortunately, every big game I've gone to there, Michigan has lost. The Rose Bowl to Texas, the game in 2006, even App State. So, I've just decided to watch at home and bypass the communal experience, even though there have been some memorable moments, when John Navarre and his mom showed up for the showdown with the Buckeyes, which Michigan lost.  The night my son and I enjoyed tormenting my wife, a Spartan grad, when Henne and Braylon led Michigan on an incredible Halloween comeback versus MSU.

NYC Bars - Best Option Without a Reservation?

Hi all,

So I think I'm aware of the name of every NYC Michigan bar at this point along with various reviews on mgoblog and Yelp, but can any locals fill me in on which might be best to go to if I'm on my own and thus not making a table reservation (for the opener this weekend)? I don't mind a crowd that's into the game (have done multiple Mich. bars in Boston & Chicago) BUT it would be awesome if there's one of the bars where I have a chance at getting a sitting/leaning spot at the bar (for easy beer access) if I arrive early. I won't have a chance to scope out bars before Sat. at noon or later.

I do want to go to a bar with other Michigan fans, as here in Providence I almost never encounter anyone with any college sports enthusiasm (much less Michigan fans) -- always make it a point when I'm traveling to get to Michigan bars.

Thanks!

Would someone who can please add "Village Poorhouse" in Hoboken, New Jersey. It is where the North Jersey Alumni Association is going to be holding their game watching events this fall. I would do it myself but I don't think I can (as per the map) nor do I know how to.

Thanks.

Kazakhstan

If you're ever in that God-Forsaken country (and I don't mean either of the two capitols) then try Baikonur, Kazakhstan.  The several barracks-turned-hotels have the Armed Forces Network, and you can usually find a few Americans that would love to open a Piva with you and watch the game in the early morning hours.

I'd recommend the Cosmos hotel, the Sputnik hotel, the Fili or the new Roscosmos hotel that's just down the broken asphault "road".

Remember, wherever you go, Go Blue!

Anybody trolling this thread looking for a friendly Nashville establishment, a small (but hopefully growing) contingent of us meet at Bar Louie in the Gulch. They have a decent beer selection, are not overrun with SEC fans, have many TVs, and the managers are Michigan grads.

They're very amenable, and when our crowd is big enough, they'll stick us in a private room.

Oh, and sometimes the awesome cook who lived in Sterling Heights will give us free nachos. Because he's awesome.

 

Bar Louie: 314 11th Ave S  Nashville, TN 37203

Michigan Football & Basketball Bars in Phoenix / Scottsdale AZ

I spent the last week tracking down places to watch PHX, but most sites were outdated or poorly optimized. Hopefully this post has visibility in the SERPs. U of M Club of Phoenix meets in these two locations:

Dos Gringos, 4209 N. Craftsman Court, Scottsdale, AZ 85251
Primary watch party location

Zipps' Sports Grill, 1515 East Bethany Home Road, Phoenix, AZ
Newer fan bar, but the attendance is picking up - Half Moon is no longer a UM bar.

Charlottesville, VA

I have been trying to put together a Michigan fan group in central Virginia this fall.  I have a group which pretty consistently gets 7-10 Michigan fans together at the Livery Stable in Charlottesville, VA.

I know there is a permanent thread for Michigan friendly bars, and I will put this there as well, but I was just hoping to get a little bit of front page time.

I've created a facebook group called "watch Michigan Football in Charlottesville."  The group is open so feel free to join to get updates on where we will meet, etc.  For now, the meeting will be at the Livery Stable which is on the downtown mall.  Their website says they are not open until 5, but don't believe it!  They've said they will open just for us for kickoff.

NEW Michigan bar in Providence, Rhode Island

Hi all! I think it's doubtful that anyone is searching for this, but I wanted to alert anyone interested that we'll be having a gamewatch at Rick's Roadhouse in the Jewelry District in Providence, RI for the Minnesota game 10/5. Right off I-95 and also accessible on foot or transit from downtown Providence or the East Side.

Lots of screens, sound, good prices on buckets of beer, good food.

This place seems enthusiastic about hosting for the remainder of the season as long as we can get a crowd this first week, so please come out if you're in Rhode Island, nearby areas of Connecticut, or Southeastern Mass.

(Yes, I am trying to throw in any regional words people might search for, since I figure that's the only way anyone will encounter this post. :)

Michigan Bar in Providence - Update

...We are rotating to Hanley's Ale House on Pine St. in downtown Providence for the 11/2 game against MSU. This is the place that used to be McFadden's, which often drew a small group of M fans.

To my surprise I just recently found out that Bullwinkle's in Miamisburg, OH (Dayton) is a big Michigan bar.  Both bartenders yell out "Go Blue" when seeing my friend's UM shirt.  Multiple customers also with Go Blue.

There is a Miami-Ft. Lauderdale club which typically meets in FL and has sometimes met at the Beer and Burget Joint on South Beach, we watched some of the March Madness games last year there and that was a good spot!

Although not official, for people living in Brickell, a lot of Michigan fans watch games at the Beer and Burger Joint IN BRICKELL as well since it is conventient and they always have TVs and good food/beer.

I have updated the map with any bars that were posted on this thread after September 2012. If you still don't see a bar that you know is Michigan friendly please post to the thread again. Do that same if you see a bar on the list that is either closed or no longer hosting games. 

 

Thanks!

7981 Skyland Ridge Parkway

Raleigh, NC 27617

919-957-4200
 
There's usually a pretty healthy Michigan group here. If you give your receipt to one of the guys in charge, Carolina Ale House will chip in 10% of food purchases to the scholarship fund to help send some North Carolinian to Michigan.

Austin Texas Game Watch

There should be only 1 game watch listed in Austin:

Plucker's South Lamar

3909 S Lamar Blvd, Austin, Texas 78704

This is the only location that has any loyalty to the fan base or communication with the Alumni Club at this point.... which is pretty tough to come by in Longhorn country. The Tavern has not been a game watch location for 5 years and should be removed.

Prague-Expats BBQ Bar

I'm a long time lurker, but I wanted to post in order to save some people from the wild goose chase I went on in Prague in order to watch the game against App State. Not a Michigan bar per se, but they will stream games over their IPTV for you. Soccer is still king in the bar, but the owners are both from the US and are football fans. Definitely a bit away from the main square, but they were more than accommodating for me to watch the game there this past weekend.
