Grand Rapids, MI - any SEC bars?

[rem101]

With state playing within an hour of my home on the coast for the first time in my life, I'm at a work conference in Michigan. Anyone know of anywhere in Grand Rapids that shows SEC games or am I stuck with an iPad and big 10?

I stayed at Homewood Suites for about a month a few years ago. There was a Hooters within wading distance. As in the snow drifts were up to my 17ing waist first time I tried cutting across the vacant lot to get there.

It's being shown nationally on ESPNEWS. I imagine at 4/3 you'll be able to find a sports bar that will turn it on for you.

The problem is it's USA.

No idea about the TV situation in the taproom, but one of the best breweries in the country (Founders Brewing Co.) is there.

WOW. Odd little world to hear about Grand Rapids and Hooters. About 15 years ago, I was in Grand Rapids on business and desperate to see a bulldog basketball game that was airing on ESPN. My coworker and I looked, and hooters seemed to be the only place that stood out as recognizable as a sports bar. We went and put it on the company tab. I came home after the trip and my wife at the time saw the receipt and went bat **** crazy. She was of the opinion that Hooters was nothing but a strip club and those chicks were doing table dances in between shuttling wings and beer to tables.

Btw, for grins, i looked up that hoooters just now and it closed two years ago.
