Yeah, there are NO Boston bars of any sort in the area. If my wife and I weren't ready to run at the first closer-to-NE job, I'd take advantage of that obvious void in the market.
Anyway, there's a small, organized group of local NE sports fans here in Cleveland. We meet up at bars to watch games, meet up at games, etc.
We've been contacted by someone who's notified us of a large contingent heading our way for the game in November. They wanted the skinny on where to meet up Saturday night and where to tailgate.
In short, I'll try to keep this thread updated on what is planned as we get closer to the date.
I'm thinking that the downtown Winking Lizard will be a good spot for Saturday night. It's the best sports pub-chain in the area, and it really deserves to be, with the best beer selection around (100+) and above average bar food. The only down-side is that it's rather small. The up-side is that downtown Cleveland is a ghost town at night, and they'll probably be happy to accommodate us.
As far as tailgating, I have no idea since I haven't been to a Browns game in the two years we've been here. I've heard the Browns' lot, and not the public lots, will be better, but I'll find out more.
See you in November.
Chris
