It's called Durty Nellies in the northwest village of Palantine, in the suburbs of Chicago.
They advertised as the Patriot's sportsbar in the northwest or somesuch. Now, I could have gone to some sports bar within walking distance of my hotel, but I wanted to hang out with other Patriot fans, so I went to Durty Nellies.
OK, classy place. But I turned out I was the only Patriot fan there. I was outnumbered 2-to-1 by Browns fans (a couple). After I arrived, a guy in a Redskins jersey shows up who seemed to know the bartender, so this was the game shown on the main TV with sound. They did not even have th HD version of NFL Ticket (does such a thing exist?). The only games in high-def were the local broadcasts (Jets-Giants, and I'm not sure who on FOX).
1-star.
