Default Best place to wacth Monday Night Football

we've got friends in from out of town, where is the best place to go for the game tonight in terms of:

-atmosphere
-specials

I appologize if this has been discussed before but my few searches warranted nothing, not to mention the search feature is near impossible to use because the characters in the verification are very difficult to make out.

Flames Central is decent for the big TV, they have good prizes, and the atmosphere is good. On the down-side, drinks are a bit more expensive, and you gotta put up with Eric Francis.

What part of the city?

Anyplace with a crowd all paying attention to the game will ne fun.

I play QB1 every Monday at Jamesons in the NE, and with a regular group of 15-20 plus whatever groups happen to be there, it makes for a fun evening, especially when the ohhs and ahhs of spectacular plays really show that everyone is into it.

...thanks for the responses. Location is not an issue because my party is staying downtown.

I actually prefer to watch games at home because I find the pub too much of a distraction, but it's not up to me tonight.

Of all the places mentioned I've only been to Harry's, and it is a fine pub.

I think we're gonna' check out Flames Central (I was kind of leaning that way anyways):

-I've never been there
-money is not an issue with these guys
-One is guy is american and I want to show the awesome power that this team has on the city haha

Thanks gents!

Place was always packed, decent specials, little smokey maybe. Lots of screens, you could be watching many sports at once. Heck, they even had a feature on Monday nights IIRC where everyone's favorite, Eric Francis, would accost people with trivia questions for a chance to win, say, a TV from Eric's storage closet.

Haven't been there... well, since 2004. Has it gone to the dogs?
