Best Bars to Watch the Game

For away games or when you're not feeling the trek to Scott Stadium.

Best Bars to Watch the Game

We all love the Hoos. Sometimes we just don't love them all the way in Scott Stadium when we could be watching them in a heat-controlled environment that might also offer food, drinks, and chairs. Or if they're in a different state. 

So consider this your definitive guide for the best places to watch the game besides the stadium.

Trinity

This is a no-brainer. Trin has steins, spinach and artichoke dip, and a great view of the game from the comfort of the bar seats. It's a great atmosphere and an awesome way to watch the game.

The Virginian

The Virg is a classic and has been at UVA for decades, so you can feel cool for watching where generations of students have. Also: crab cakes

Boylan 

Boylan beats most of the options space-wise. The upper floor has several TVs, and what could be better than creating your own burger while cheering on the Hoos? 

Crozet 

Crozet is another great option. It's got two floors if the downstairs is packed and good viewing space of the TV. Crozet also has a larger selection of drinks (fresh zens, anyone?) and, of course, pizza. 

Mellow Mushroom

You can't beat Mellow. Split some pitchers with your friends and enjoy a view anywhere in the restaurant. Mellow wins for viewing space since they have several TVs and, like Boylan, it's also a restaurant so there's more space. 

Edgar Allan Poe's Public House (No. 3) 

While not usually the most popular choice, it was recently renovated and has a whole new menu. I haven't been since they redid it, but definitely want to check it out. It's also great for when some of the more popular choices are packed.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
