Where do you guys hang out after the game?

[ziggy]

I'm working on trying to develop some partnerships with some of the downtown bars/restaurants/shoe modeling establishments in the uptown area to see if I can work out some deals for BCP folks.

I figure that there are thousands of people every day that check out this site, the majority of whom are in Uptown Charlotte on the nights of Bobcats games, so why not see if I can work something out and possibly get some cool deals for us.

I have a few places in mind that I'm going to approach, but I wanted to check with you guys also to see what your favorite post game hangout spots were so that I could approach them and possibly work out some discounts at those places too.

Ri-Ra, great place for pre-game/post-game food and drinks.

If I pregame it in uptown, I'm usually at Wild Wing Cafe. Sometimes we'll head back there after the game, especially if it's on a Friday or Saturday night. I'm wondering if there's a better place to go? Ri-Ra sounds like an option.

Pre-game...for the quick bite to eat before the game is Bellacino's. It's part of the Arena building, with exterior entrance only on the Trade street side right where Brevard deadends into Trade.

They give discounts to Bobcats employees (they thought I was one a couple times), so they are open to the idea of providing discounts to groups that frequent their business. If you aren't familiar with Bellacinos, they have subs, grinders, pizza, salads and beer. I would suggest calling ahead, that way you don't waste any time (thought there are lots of flat panel TV's showing sports related content on game nights.

From that point heading into the arena, the Team Store entrance is the closest to you (and always has the shortest security line).


Another good place, though you have to allow more time is Brixx near intersection of 6th & College (they'll validate your parking pass in the 7th street parking garage which will save you some money. They almost always have a drink special and may be open to a group discount. They always have discounts after 10pm on drinks and appetizers, though it's a restaurant, not a sports bar or club.

This. The food is pretty good for the price, too.

Connelly's.

My bed. I wake up damn early to watch these games, and thus go to sleep straight after. Anything you can do for me in Aus would be greatly appreciated.

[Dunk]

Phils or Blackfinns. Phils for the eye candy obviously.

[chabber]

I enjoy BlackFinn and Mortimer's at the EpiCentre if I want to catch other games and grab some food and Amelie's French Bakery (Open 24/7) in NoDa if I'm in the mood for desert and relaxation. If I want Pizza it's Hawthorne's or Fuel.

Too poor (and a bit much of a misanthrope) for any of that jazz. Buzzer sounds and I'm on the road home where a nice can of soup and a sandwich are waiting on me!

Still, very cool idea for those who are into the post-game hang out scene, ziggy! Hell, if, no, when you get a partner or two, I might even try it out.

Am I the only one who eats at home before leaving for the game? I'm already paying for tickets, I don't want it to be a $100+ affair just to go to a game

So Ziggy...are you going to call SWedd and ask him for the menu and pricing at his house, or should we do that directly?

SWedd, do your neighbors mind a couple hundred cars parking in their yards?
