What players say
This is our go to bar. Close to home, good drink prices, bartender is great. Atmosphere ranges from quiet in off periods to a full blown party when you expect it.
More than a sports bar. Spacious layout, with seating and games. Such as pool, football, bag toss and a couple others. There a nice dj booth with room to dance in front. While I was there the music bounced between music videos and the dj. Drinks were well prices and well made- of course that's all that really matters.
Bartender is great. Atmosphere can be hit or miss depending on what you want for an evening and the night. Overall, great place for a drink, some pool, bags (cornhole) or darts. Please send more people for karaoke. New talent is needed.
Here at The Thirsty Sportsman to listen to Abby Normal play GREAT ROCK AND ROLL!!
