As far as actually hearing a game, you are probably out of luck. Chubbs and Sportsmens will carry most if not all games, but the background noise will probably make hearing next to impossible EVEN IF your game is the one they choose to turn the sound up on (what a sentence!).

If you are a Miami fan the local cable service CableTica carries the feeds from the Miami network stations. We used to get Denver stations with Amnet, no idea now what they get. Anyway, Chubbs or Sportsmens to watch. To listen you are in for a struggle at best. Might try HLH and bribe the bartender.

I'm familiar with SL, not so much with Chubbs. I looked at the Chubbs website and it dosen't look all that comfortable for a whole day.

Does this sleep inn have couches and everything? This is in the sleep inn hotel or in the colonial casino?

Obviously from the layout the Sportsmens is still the # 1 Gulch spot, but the new Cafe Ricks at the Dunn Inn has all brand new Flat Screen TV's and they will have all games on via Direct TV. Scott the Mgr also indicated the main game of the day will have the sound piped in as well as sound for all Night games.

Watched at both Chubbs and the Sportsmans last week and enjoyed both spots. I don't care much about the talking heads on tv so the volume isn't an issue for me. Watched a preseason game at Mac's over by Sabana. Good crowd, lots of sportsbook guys and a few ticas around. I miss the Horseshoe the couple of years they were into football.. Was a great place to watch..

Good suggestion. Will certainly be an option. Might even head there tonight to see if they are for real about the night game + sound. I can't watch without sound, I'd watch at home over any bar if thats the case.

Problem with Macs is its dingy and I don't care too much for the sportsbook crowd.

dunn in is a good spot to watch...not a lot of smoke, especially cigars and on the upper floor you may get volume.

a little more civilized then the other suggestions

Sportsmens has always been the best place to watch the games in my opinion. Lots of TVs, all the games and a good football crowd. You can also make bets with Gowidesports on site.

Watched the first half to night at a new little spot in Pavas, close to Cemaco, called Gol. Nice and clean, 8 big screens and a nice staff.. If I end up living in that hood will be there more...

If you like cigars and comfy chairs, I have installed a flatscreen in the Havana Humidor Room at the HLH. The sound is on btw.
