I would have liked to have stayed at Huskie Stadium to see the end of the game, but, if we wanted to find a seat at Lord Stanley's downtown on the Lincoln Highway, that we had best get there before the game ended.
Lord Stanley's used to be the Shamrock when we were there and for many years afterwards as well. But in the 80s, it changed to the new name and now includes a bar called The Annex. If you are a hockey fan, particularly the Blackhawks, this is your place to go. Of course, Liz and I are bandstand jumpers now, so that is ok for us.
Elegant Lord Stanley's ain't. If you're expecting BW3 or Chili's, don't go here. It is one of those stick-to-the-floor kind of places. But, if you're looking for a non-Yuppie kinda place, this be it. You will have a GOOD time.
Even though we've never had it, they are noted for their pizza and during the course of the show, we saw lots of them consumed.
Beer was $7 a pitcher.
All the parking places directly behind the place were already taken so we had to park a bit farther away. Every table was already occupied as was all seats at the bar, but we got lucky and just as we walked by, two people got up and left. Within seconds, we were seated at their stools.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
