BC’s BEST CHANCE TO WIN
Well the rain may make BC’s horrendous special teams even harder to use, but this game is going to be won on the back of AJ Dillon and the defense (how many times will I write that phrase this year?). It all comes down to the trenches, which is fine because using the “throw game” in a hurricane is always going to be a tough ask. Why not rely on what BC does best?
Watch Parties:
Chicago: The Chicago game watch will be back at Tobacco Road Tap Room (2249 N. Lincoln Ave). There will be all you can drink wristbands (domestic drafts, well liquor) for purchase, stadium cup deals, and food specials. There should be food specials as well!
New York
Dewey’s Pub is “Little Alumni” in New York, and is once again throwing its doors open to BC fans. There will be free 30 minutes of Bud Light open bar prior to kickoff and during half time. They also will be putting on BC themed food specials! (Having been there, I can verify it’s a great time)
Phoenix, Arizona
Here’s a new one! If you’re in the area, clear your work schedule and join some fellow Eagles at Gallagher’s on 16th Street at 2:30 AZ time. Admit it, work can wait.
