Default Need CPs help

As my name and title suggest I am in need of help.

I promised a while ago that i'd take my wife out for dinner tonight to a "nice" place... Don't ask me what I would qualify as "nice".

But since I was short sighted on this promise I did not realize that the epic Flames vs Jets game was going to conflict. Now I need a suggestion as to a nice place, hopefully DT, that I can watch the game but would be considered "nice".

FML.

and thank you,

Metropolitan Grill on 16th Ave. Sit upstairs. As a bonus feature, it turns into a cougar bar around 10pm.

Buy a PVR and watch the game later. Much less stressful than a divorce.

I cancelled my wifes birthday dinner on wednesday so I could watch Sven play here in Kamloops. Then he gets called up and I look like a husband who sacrificed the game he really wanted to see when dinner is back on

I didn't take it that way. I saw it merely as a comment. No need for you to get all bitchy because you screwed up your dinner plans and now need an out so you can watch the game.
