    Default Good places to watch the Bills in the Newport News, VA area?

    Hey guys, my apologies if this is posted in a wrong section; I wasn't sure where else to post it. Anyways, I'll be a freshman at Christopher Newport University in Virginia this year and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good places to watch Bills games. I know that there's a Bill Backers bar in Virginia Beach, but that's 45 minutes away.

    I'm wondering if it would be a better option to just get Sunday Ticket on my laptop though. Any input?
    There's always next year

    If you want the company for a big time game I say going to the VB bar is worth it, high fiving and cheering on your team with a bunch of other people like you're somewhere in WNY. I drive from Harrisonburg to the Charlottesville Backers bar to do just that, otherwise I stream the game at home through the laptop, but not through Sunday Ticket. I guess if you purchase that you might as well get your money's worth and never go to the bar but there are cheaper ways to stream.

    Brother I live in Hampton Va. Go to the backers in Va beach on Holland road. It's worth the drive. I've been there since 2007 and haven't been happier.

    It has been years since I lived in Va. Beach, but I used to go to a placed called Scandals to watch the games. Bruce Smith used to frequent the place as well.

It ... will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."

    I went yesterday. It was awesome. The place looked great, the owner is a true die hard Bills fan, and the food kicke ***.


    This guy truly has the greatest French fries that I've ever tasted. I don't know what he seasons them with, or what oil he uses to cook with. But it was the best **** fries I've ever had.


    This is a must go to place for all Bills fans in the 757.

    Hey man, I have two friends that live there originally from Rochester that live right next to campus. They go to the Brickhouse right there in the square every Sunday with all there Bills gear and have a really good time. They're friendly dudes who like beer and love the Bills and get along with just about anyone.

    leave the peninsula a little bit early. the HRBT has issues on the weekend. hardly any wrecks but, it always seems to slow down for no reason other than some folks are just scared to drive through the tunnel lol.
    rule #1... laugh at whatever he says.
    what if what he says isn't funny?
    that's irrelevant. a fake laugh is like a fake orgasm.
    and that's good?
    no... but a fake orgasm is better than no orgasm.

    only to you. you're not the only one in the room you know?
