[Albion] Chicago Seagulls

[RandyWanger]

I didn't want to start my own 'ooh look at me I'm in paradise but want to watch football' thread, but looking online it appears the game isn't televised.



Or is that just not on TV where I will be?

I would definitely try Chicago Seagulls.
I watched the Norwich game in Legends, New York with NYCgulls on Saturday and had a great time.

I’m in Boston on Sunday so trying to do the same. Though it’s a 0900 ko time over here.

FYI, the 14:00 ko time in Manchester is 8:00 ko time in Chicago on a Sunday morning. Other than EPL fans the only ones who will be awake will be the church people and they can be some scary people on a Sunday morning.

It is being shown live in the US on NBC SN.

Hey Lenny! Late to this thread, but see there has been some ideas thrown about already. AJ Hudson's is the usual spot we meet, but that is a bit up north. Unfortunately the game is on Sunday, same as Bears (I'll be there as well). The game should end 2hrs before the Bears, which may sound like a lot, but it's such a pain to get to and into Soldier Field. So I don't think I'll be going to AJ's this Sunday.

Where are you staying? River North/Loop area? There should be bars open at 8am, but Sunday is NFL day, so most that are open will be playing pregame shows. This will be true for most if not all of the bars near Soldier. Fado Irish Pub (https://fadoirishpub.com/chicago/) is in River North/not too far from Soldier, and is a Man U bar. It's in the tourist part of the city, so not too many locals, but it will be showing the game for sure.

I was thinking about watching at home before going to the Bears, but if you plan on watching somewhere downtown I could possibly meet. Either way, have a great weekend in Chicago!

FYI, temperatures in Chicago this morning will be near -7C. Don't under estimate how cold it can get in Chicago after the sun goes down and the wind starts to blow.

I can’t seem to be able to send you a PM.

We are staying at the Hilton, on the Magnificent Mile, is there somewhere you would recommend that we could meet you on Sunday at 8am to watch the game, have some food and then go to the Bears afterwards?

Thanks

Harty

Me neither... I don't even see an option to PM.

I could do Fado, not sure what other places would be open and showing the game. It's not too far from your hotel, just a little west - 100 W Grand Ave. Let me know!

[MENTION=37143]ChicagoSeagulls[/MENTION] - I've promoted you to full user status, although I appreciate it may be a little bit late now for what you were trying to arrange. I've also sent Harty a text with your suggestion.
