Where are you watching the big game?

Thirsty Fellow Columbia

Throwing your own SBLII party can be fun… but it can also be a daunting task that you can avoid if you know where to go. So we asked you, “Where are you watching the ‘Bowl on Sunday?”

Here’s a list of hassle-free spots to meet your friends to watch the Pats vs. the Eagles (and JT).

🏈 $5000 Grand Prize Party & Charity Event | 3-11 p.m. | Moriarty’s Irish Pub | 902B Gervais St. | A $100 cover charge (with proceeds going towards Pets Inc.) gets you a buffet spread, Bud Light + Miller Light Draft and the chance at winning $5,000. Plus, the evening kicks off with a “pooch parade” at 3 p.m. 🐶

🏈 Grand Party | 6-10 p.m. | The GRAND on Main | 1621 Main St. | For those of you who can’t sit still during a 4-hour game, bowl your own game at The GRAND while watching the game on their big screens.

🏈 Pre-game Oyster Roast | 4:30-10:30 p.m. | Carolina Ale House Harbison | 277 Columbiana Dr. | Pregame with an oyster roast – a.k.a. that thing we do in S.C. whenever there’s a reason to celebrate.

🏈 Rosewood Church Big Game Chili Cook-Off | 5 p.m. | Rosewood Church | 2901 Rosewood Dr. | Chili + football go together like mules + the Kentucky Derby. Just don’t forget to unplug your Crockpot before the This Is Us season finale airs immediately following the game. 😱

🏈 SB Party | 4 p.m. | Random Tap | 10509 Two Notch Rd., Elgin | Random Tap is making pulled pork sliders – they just ask you bring an app to share.

🏈 The Big Game | 6:30-12 a.m. | Main Street Public House | 1556 Main St. | Wear a team jersey + get a free pizza at halftime. 🍕

🏈 Craft and Draft | 6 p.m. | 2706 Devine St. | Only two TVs, limited bar seating + no “special event” – but a recommended option if you want to escape the crowds and enjoy some craft beer.
