Regional Resources: Sports Illustrated, Finding the Perfect Sports Bar

It’s a bit dated (2005), but this article and accompanying list should prove to be a valuable tool when planning your next sports trip. I can vouch for Nemo’s in Detroit, which was the second stop on our gentlemen’s getaway to Murder City last November for a NHL/NFL double header. The décor is a rather charming cross between a 1970’s pizza parlour and a small town VFW legion hall that’s especially welcoming after a stroll down deserted Michigan Avenue. Though the menu is sparse, “just burgers, chips and nuts after lunch,” service on paper plates is perfect for the $1 shuttle to the game. Hell, the bartender will even give you a beer for the road (in a plastic cup).
