Away Games: Going to the Bar for the Game

Most people would rather watch the game one of two ways: at home or at the actually game itself. For those whom want the comfort of home with a arena atmosphere, they go to their local bar. Here's a Pro-Con list for doing such:

Pro - Loud people make game more fun.
Con - Loud people will eventually irritate you.

Pro -  Beer tastes better and is colder at a bar. Who knows why, it just does.
Con - Beer is expensive at a bar. Especially if you cannot stomach shit beer like Miller Light & Budanything.

Pro - Bar food is fucking awesome. Nay, amazing. The strategy of batter-coating stuff and deep-frying it to golden perfection works on any level. Plus, bar food is usually cheapish.
Con - Ask the toilet about an hour later . . .

Pro - You get insight into the game from worldly, knowledgeable fans who have been watching this sport for decades. Some of the wisest people gather at bars.
Con - Drunks try to do the same thing. Hell, if they're not drunk than they're idiots who think the referees are constantly screwing the Steelers and this year is the Pirates' year because of . . . um, I don't know?

Pro - Lots of television screens to view the game.
Con - No volume to hear the game.

If you cannot tell, I like my couch or a barstool. But you make up your own damn mind.
