Sports Bar/Restaurant

[MaliBuckeye]

Sorry if this has been asked already, I did a BP search and everything! :)

I'm headed to Columbus for The Game, and want to get together with some folks afterwards. I'm looking for a place that's a bit outside of the University area, preferably on the west side of the city (we're driving to St. Louis immediately afterwards).

We're going to have about 15-30 people, and will want to watch the rest of the day's games while we bask in the Buckeye victory.

Any suggestions for our post-game tailgate?

Thanks in advance!

Try Average Joe's on Hilliard Rome Rd, I-70 exit 91. Pretty new place, tons of TV's, pretty good food, good beers on tap.

You'll probably have a hard time finding any sports bar/restaurant with room for 15-30 people immediately after the game.

Thanks- we were actually thinking closer to dinner- 5:00 or so (assuming a 3:30-4:00 finish).

I would also recommend Average Joes. Great place.

Hit up Hollywood Casino. They have a nice sports bar inside.

Was actually my first thought, until my wife corrected it for me. :)

Permanently closed. Just like every other Hooters in Columbus.

I also recommend Average Joes.

You sure? Last I heard it was the only one still open

I don't know the exact date, but, yeah it's been closed for about a month...maybe longer. I drive by it every day on my way home from work. The parking lot has been empty and the lights are out. Also, Urbanspoon.com has it listed as "Permanently Closed".

I would second Average Joe's. Also a new place called Nasty's which is out towards the end of Walcutt Rd. Have heard that the pricing is good and there's normally not that many folks there
