Cowboy preseason games/ Atlanta

[dbair1967]

anyone heard of any sports bar/s definitly getting the preseason games here in Atlanta? For several yrs we've been able to get them at Jocks & Jills in Brookhaven, but I've been told they closed it.

I'm gonna try and post the C-band backhaul feed of Saturday's game about an hour before kickoff. If you can find a place that has one of those big 12-foot C-band dishes, just give them the coordinates I hope to post.

They closed the Jocks n Jills in Brookhaven? Damn. I guess that sexual harrassment judgement against them really screwed things up. I know the Midtown one is still open and I just ate in the one at Cobb Galleria 3 weeks ago.

The best place, PERIOD, to see any game these days in Atlanta is at one of the newer Taco Macs. The Taco Mac in Buckhead at Lindbergh station has about 5 gazillion LCD screens, and two giant DLP projectors in the main dining room...and the place is HUGE. Saw the UGA/VT bowl game there.....man, that was an awesome time. Same goes for the Taco Mac over at Perimeter in the Target shopping center next to the mall - tons of flatscreens. Can't go wrong with Taco Mac. Well, the food ain't that great, but its edible.

For preseason football it shouldnt be too bad....but on college football saturdays, you have to get there several hours early. Those places fill up like mad and stay that way.

Famous Pub and Sports over on N Druid Hills in Decatur is also a fantastic place to watch games.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute...

Are you guys telling me that I can see the preseason game LIVE from California?

Sports bars can show preseason games that aren't local or national???

I know all about Sunday Ticket... I'm at a sports bar during the REGULAR season anytime the Cowboys aren't shown here in Cali. Does Sunday Ticket also apply to preseason?

I hope I'm not getting my hopes up here... I've been pissed about not being able to see the Cowboys-Broncos game live.

yes they can show them IF they can find one of the local feeds that carry the game...some bar owners/staff will make a true effort to find them, others make no effort at all

what sux is when you show up 30 mins early or so, start ordering after you are promised they will find the game, then sit there in disgust as they make no effort whatsoever to get it

Funny - I work about 1/2 mile down PTree Indl from Banacles. I didn't even know that the "Funtime Emporium" was a strip club untill some female coworkers told me about it a few weeks ago. . .

I live in the apt complex that connects to where Jock/Jills used to be. The new place opened up about 2 weeks ago and it's not bad at all. Slightly more upscale than J/J. . . more like a Dantanna's now.

I'm gonna try that cause I gets to walk there. Hopefully there will be Texas games there too.

P.S. Went to Taco Mac's yesterday for lunch in Roswell. . . I wouldn't recommend it cause the place feels to sterile. Maybe cause it's new.

Of course not, theebs. You're the only one who lives in the metroplex. Didn't you know that?
