Gamewatch RVA?

[artradley]

Is there any chance somebody knows a good place to watch the game in Richmond?

I'll have it on at my house in Chester. Come on over.

If you want to drive a little, head to the Crystal City Sports Pub in the DC area, I've not been yet but I hear it rocks. I'm a capital area I-club member but it's a little far to drive for me.

Thanks, but that's close to three hours from my house. I'll probably just watch in the living room; being on the east coast there is some advantage to being able to put on PJ's at halftime then go straight to bed when the game is over. Plus, the last time I went to a bar to watch Iowa was the USC debacle, so now I'm a little superstitious.

Stay home!

I retract my invite. Although we should try to start a Richmond I-Club. There are a few Iowa fans around this area. We need to step up our game.

Lol! I missed your first post - Chester looks to be about 40 minutes away from me. I'm surrounded by Virginia Tech fans, although they are completely harmless!

I live in RVA too and the unofficial Richmond Iowa Club (membership of 2) meets at my house most Saturdays. The entire club will be representing in Indianapolis tomorrow though!

Nice. I tried to convince my father, who lives in Iowa and has Stage 4 cancer, to meet me in Indy so he could live it up a little. But even though he's still feeling fine he preferred to stay home.

It wouldn't be the same without him, so I'll watch it here and just call him a couple of times during the game.

Have a great time! I wish I were going!

In the name of Arthur Fonzereli, stay home!! That USC/Orange Bowl stank hasn't washed off yet.

Seriously, Ts & Ps to you and your father and family. One of my last memories of my dad was watching Iowa-Iowa State on TV with him.

It's time to expand and advance this group.

I agree. I've run into 2 Hawkeye fans in the 3+ years I've lived here so I've had to lure Tech and UVA fans to come over and watch the games with us by offering food and beer. Free food and beer, an awesome 12-0 team and now I've created a half dozen Hawkeye fans who have never set foot in the state!
