Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

I'm so ready to go to KC next weekend!!


Ok everyone, I'll be coming to KC next Friday (I can't wait!) and I need all the help I can get from the locals.  I'll be staying in Downtown for Friday & Saturday night...then heading down by the stadium for Sunday night before flying home Monday.

So....I'd like some ideas on where I can go?  Like sports bars, good eats, etc.  Keep in mind that we're walking or taking cabs so nothing too far.

Also, who is going to the KC/Cowboys game?  I'd like to meet up with some of you for tailgating (where's the best lot?) or socializing.  I plan on bring my own beer and being incredibly drunk...just sayin.

Anyone driving by downtown on the way to that game?  We need a ride....lol

Send me an email (email in my profile) if you want to meet up for some AP chit chat and beers, or if you want to meet up at the stadium for tailgating.  I promise I'm not a serial killer...you might be though, hmm. 

Anyway, I would love your suggestions!!!!

Its great if...

Your idea of a great meal out is Chilli’s or Applebee’s.
If you like your entertianment prepackaged in a generic, soulless manner.
If you shave your arms and chest and fake bake.
If you think the South will rise again.

Its a younger crowd...

its the really one of only three places in KC that has a good night life. Brookside has a great bar, its my favorite place to go.

Brookside!

You must mean Charlie Hoopers?

I like the brew co

at the power and light district… it’s worth visiting… but like everything else there, it’s easily duplicated….

KC Rec's

Food – I don’t know Downtown as well as Brookside and Midtown, but Blue Bird is damn good. Le Fou Frog too.

Drinks – Go hollar at my hommie Fiona at Harry’s Country Club in the River Market. Avoid White Power and Light at all costs unless you’re looking for a dude with a badass tribal band tat and a Livestrong bracelet.

Friday night – Hottest dance party and hottest cuts are always at Chez Charlies.

Sunday – Lot C is where I always tailgate, gets pretty hyphy. After the game, 8 pm that is, check out The People’s Liberation Big Band at the Record Bar. Cheap cover, best tasting beer and town, and out of this world local jazz.

Le Fou Frog

Yes, I’ve been there once but it was just for a few drinks and desert. But, wow, I liked the looks of the menu.

Also you might check out www.yelp.com if you never have. You can get reviews from the citizenry there.

Oh shit, this weekend is the American Royal BBQ contest.

Thats a must see either Friday or Saturday night. Not far from downtown either.

Take it back.

American Royal is this weekend, Dallas game is not this weekend.

Hey Saskwatch, roadtrip?

We will definitely have to arrange something.

My wife is a big colts fan, so we have kind of set our sites on the next time the colts are at Arrowhead (we went to the Chiefs Colts game in Indy a couple of years ago.) i am hoping they play there next year.

by saskwatch on Sep 29, 2009 10:55 AM CDT up reply actions  

So this years AFC Championship then?

next year..

Ive been talking to a season ticket rep. via email this year b/c I was going to get season tickets this year but I held out.. thinking that was a good idea but he sent me an email to about putting down 100 bucks to reserve seats for next year and said that these are the home games next year.
Afc West,AZ,Jax,SF,Tennessee and AFC East TBA

by tomahawk44 on Sep 29, 2009 11:16 AM CDT up reply actions  

My understanding is

the Cowboys game might actually be sold out for reals, as in people actually turning up at the stadium. Which can only help the atmosfear!

Blame my wife!
Waiting until August!

Best Bars/Hangout spots downtown, non-power & light

The Cashew, upwardly mobile beer and cocktails great bar, professional young crowd
The Bulldog, good selection, younger crowd
The Cigar Box, old school mafia bar, although the mafia died out in the 70’s
The Velvet Dog, hip cat martini bar, outdoor bacchi ball court
The Phoenix. old school jazz

Eats
Aurthur Bryants, closer to downtown than OK Joe’s, but just as classic & bigger portions
Fiorella’s Jackstack, best beans ever, anywhere
Lulu’s, asian noodle shop, very underrated
TOWN TOPIC, best 2:30am double cheesburger, onion rings, and choc malt in town
Phillips Chophouse, upscale steaks, chops, style. Seasonal menu, fresh game meats expensive but worth it, premiere wine list
Pierpont’s, pretty decent seafood for the middle of the USA, but seriously seafood in KC?

by Your_Moms_Boyfriend on Sep 29, 2009 2:48 PM CDT reply actions  

I don't do seafood....lol

but I will be seriously considering many options on your list! I’m loving the 230am double cheeseburger info…..nothing better than drunken food runs. hehe

What time do they stop serving booze in MO?

I am going...of course you already know that Heather.

I am not a drinker….but it sure as hell sounds like you are…lol….nothing wrong with that. To each their own. I am looking to take this whole thing in. Not very often will I get a chance to go to Arrowhead with my Brother the Cowboy fan and watch them play live and in person.
Looks like this will be a great Chiefs experience for us both….
I plan on taking a lot of pictures and I hope to be able to make something like a fanpost to share my 1st experience at Arrowhead.

I’m not sure where you got that crazy notion but….. :)

Yeah, I’m sad that my sister (the Cowboys fan) can’t make on this trip with me…..but I plan on taking a ton of pics myself and hoping that we can finally get a W next weekend. The Cowboys aren’t so special…lol
