I love Charlottsville. It's on my short list of places I'd most like to live. How do you like it?

If you're telling me there's a strong Patriots fan base down there, I just might have to move Charlottsville to the very top of the list.

i used to live in DC and the year i was there went to Murphy's every sunday...remember having to get there very early to get a table. THings may have changed since then but if it's still like it was 6-7 years ago, you'll have a blast! Not sure about metro but you can easily drive and park on the street...i think on weekends they shut the meters off

I love it here...about 3 hours from the beach, 1/2 hour from blueridge mts and 2 from DC. University town, so lots of nightlife/clubs. Great restaurants, good place to raise family, schools good...

housing prices are a bit steep...

I don't think there is a huge fan base here, went to a bar to watch the Pats/Denver playoff, we outnumbered the broncs fans but not by much, and the bar was far from full ( It cleared out pretty much when the Skins lost the early game...)

I've been watching the games there since '95. It's a great crowd! Expect a packed house, especially on opening day. It's always best to arrive early. Street parking is free on Sundays but can be hit or miss. There are a number of good places to park within two blocks of the pub.

Games are televised upstairs; every television is tuned to the Patriots including the projection screen. The food is good, not great - hey, it's a bar! Send an email to fans@murphyspatriots.com - I'll get you a ton more info.

Hope you can make it!

Murphy's has great lamb stew.

I quit going there because it was a little rowdy for a mixed crowd. Its definitely crowded but you are certainly among Pats fans.
Site lines are shaky.
Get there early for several reasons.
