SIX NATIONS COMING TO 3 & L....

In what is shaping up to be a HUGE sports weekend at the bar, we just added another prominent event to the Third and Long schedule: Europe's Six Nations Rugby Tournament. This annual event pits the national rugby teams of six nations: England, France, Ireland, Wales, Italy and Scotland.

It's a popular event and we've gotten many requests about it over the years and finally this year, with the availability of the event on BBC America, we're now able to carry the event live.

The tournament kicks off this Saturday at 12 noon with England facing off against Wales. So for all of you rugby fans, here's what you've been waiting for. We'll be serving up $2 mugs, all beers on tap* from 12 noon-7pm so make sure you get there and secure a spot. Between this event, the UFC event later in the evening and of course, Super Bowl Sunday, it should make for a busy weekend at the bar.

In the meantime, tonight is "Round 3" of the Pub Trivia "Tournament of Champions". Teams of 1-8 players are eligible to play and it's free to enter, with cool prizes to be won as well as a spot in the tournament finals in March. There are great drink specials to be had as well ($4 Mixed Well Drinks for ladies, $15 Buckets of Miller High Life). Registration begins around 7pm (strongly suggest you get there early to secure a spot); fun begins around 8pm.

This week's theme: The Super Bowl.

Still looking for suggestions for songs/albums to update the jukebox with. Submit your suggestions here.

Enjoy the dusting of snow. Not much fell so I guess everyone should be okay with their commute. In any case, be safe.


That's It. That's All I Got.
