This cavernous adult playground has room for large groups (including college teams’ fan clubs), alcoves and private rooms for smaller parties, and a bevy of TVs tuned to every game. The staff here are battle-tested and capable of slinging your food and beers (of which there’s a surprisingly decent rotating selection). For those who want to play rather than watch, there’s shuffleboard, pool, darts and video games. Game-day is about being around other people, and during a big contest there’s a hum (and sometimes a roar) of excitement at Buffalo Billiards that can’t be beat.
It’s football season, DC, which means you could do you Sunday RedZone binge alone, at home, with some excellent pizza delivered to your lap. But why ignore the fantastic bars DC has that aim to make your game-day that little bit more excellent. They’re the dive bars drawing fans of all stripes with great atmospheres and killer bar snacks and they’re the halls of mega-screens making sure you never miss a moment of the action. And they’re waiting for you. So, helmets on, and get playing.
