Will any Americans be in Prague when the US plays Czech? I will be there for that game en route to Germany. I'm wondering if there is a bar or something that American fans might be meeting at in Prague to watch the game, because we will be in enemy territory;) .

I'm guessing that some of the 50,000 or so who live there will be around.
Last time I was in Prague I went to sports bar just off Wenchless Square. It's name is Czech for Red Star. I won't butcher the language by taking a stab at writing it here, but if you've seen the new name that Red Star Belgrade goes under, it looks similar to that (Czech and Serbo-Croat are similar).
The place was packed with Americans, as they were showing playoff baseball at the time. That's where I'd go if I were you.

There are plenty of Americans in Prague.
Chances are they will show the game on a huge screen in one of the main squares in the stare mesto area of Prague.

I have US-Czech tickets, so I'll be in Gelsenkirchen at the game, but I'll be in Prague on the 9th and the 10th if anyone wants to meet up and watch some games.

I will probably end up watching them there. When I lived in Milan they used to show the bigger games outside the Duomo, which was always an event. Flares being fired at the duomo was my favorite thing to watch, hahahaha.

It's a good sports bar. It's on a street called something like ve smekach, about three streets from the end, on the right, as you walk down wenceslas square towards the museum. It's about 200m down the street, on the left.
It's all very safe but there's plenty of ..err.. nightlife down that end of wenceslas square, so if you are the sort of person with low willpower, don't walk that way back after indulging yourself in all the cheap beer.
