We need a place with multiple TV's, the sound turned on, discount food and drink, plenty of space, and a good atmosphere.

Any suggestions?

In years past, a favorite was My Brother Vinny's (RIP), then Hacienda.

I am thinking that maybe we rotate to different joints.

Maybe Manderes one week. Mesquite another.

Who's in?

What other choices/suggestions?

Check out Po Boyz on Oak Ave. It has several TV's, food. drinks, ping pong, etc. Good BBQ too! Great, somewhat unknown spot in Folsom.

I second Po'Boyz, although not sure how often I could make it...

I've been there. Yes, it would make a good option, even though it's waaaaaaaaaay on the other side of the river.

I can walk to Po boys, so that would rate it higher in my book (no driving=more beer!) Now my potential attendance may either encourage or discourage you, but I at least promise to leave my political soapbox at home....smile.gif

JB, no worries about our political differences.

When it comes to the Monday Night Football club, libs, dems, libertarians, mylos, and the craziest among us are welcome. Our bond is the love of the game, or the love of the beer, or the love of getting out of the house, or the love of getting together with myfolsomites.

Politics are rarely mentioned, unless Obama shows up for the coin toss in his mama's jeans.

I'm willing to do one or two games on your side of the river, but like you, I like to stay close to home.

Mondays are out for me. sad.gif Bummer considering I was a regular for a while at Vinny's. But once it hits Thursdays, I'm more able to make it -- except for the Thursday night Bears/49ers game, I'll be at the game. smile.gif

I hadn't planned on it. The toughest thing was getting the restaurant gift certs. It was a nightmare trying to manage the weekly prizes.

I'll be glad to discuss, though.

Is this an open club? I am pretty new to Folsom and would really love to find some place to watch MNF.

Absolutely! Any and all are welcome, even Rams and Cowboys fans.

Its hard to beat Mexquite, $3.00 Margaritas and a plateful of appetizers for $2.00, along with free chips. The only drawback is I don't recall seeing a seating area for a large group to watch.

Maybe we could play Football bingo for a small investment with all those who show up, just to keep the game interesting if its a rout?

Anyone interested in joining a confidence pool this year?

"The game is pretty simple. In a standard Confidence Pool, you're asked to pick the winners of each NFL contest for the week (yep, all 16 games; less during bye weeks). Then you weight each pick with a number of confidence points between 1 and 16 (where higher is better). You can't re-use a number, and you must use all numbers. When the team you picked to win actually wins, you get the points you assigned to that game. "

We can winners each week and end-of-year.
