We actually went to Road Boaters before we checked into the motel as we wanted to be sure they were going to have the Black Hawk Stanley Cup game on TV. We definitely were not in Black Hawk land and they were completely unaware that a game was even being played. After some work, they found out what channel it was on and said they'd show it tonight.
After playing NTN at Chicago Brother's Pizza and JJ Twigg's (also where we watched the first two periods of the Black Hawk-Philadelphia Flyers game because they had a very few fans. JJ Twigg's started out as a Chicago-area pizza place in Wauconda and Lake Zurich, Illinois, near us. It is always more fun to watch a game with people who are fans.), we went back to Road Boaters and got seats right in front of one of their big screen TVs which had the game on.
There was a crowd, but no one else was watching (which would have been us had the Hawks not been playing). But, they KNEW the Hawks were playing as Liz and I were doing some yelling and cheering.
