No Cover? Outstanding!

I don't know about you, but for me, a night filled of watching seriously cut men wrestle and beat each other bloody equals the perfect Saturday night.  Hence the reason I found myself at Buffalo Wild Wings to watch Rampage Jackson take on Jon Jones.  And you want to know the best part?  There was no cover!

The one thing I have against both the UFC and boxing (other than the fact that there is something seriously wrong with the heavyweights aren't the stars) is the fact you have to lay down some serious cash for the pleasure of watching what is 50/50 going to be a fight that comes down to a decision instead of a KO.  So imagine my surprise when I found that the best sports bar in Ithaca didn't charge anything to go watch the young upstart take on the face of the sport.  Needless to say, I was pumped!  Even better, an order of 12 wings, a wrap, 3 Sam's Octoberfest pint-sized, and 4 Yuengling's tall-sized produced a check of only $50!  Close your mouth sir! I speak the truth!

True, Buffalo Wild Wings doesn't have the charm of a local watering spot.  But what it does have is tons of TV's and die hard fans who are there to watch the game, not to gossip.  So next time you are looking for somewhere to catch the big fight (aka, in a month I'll be there to watch GSP my favorite person ever even though he is Canadian, but that's a fault I'm willing to overlook as it's not something he can really help) and you don't feel like having 20 people over to justify paying for it, head over to your local Buffalo Wild Wings.  I promise it won't disappoint!
