Most of my friends dont support any EPL teams (save for one person who supports Man City) so I either go to Lucky Bar (near Dupont on Conn ave) or watch games at my friends apartment if its a big CL match or the usual "big" match - chelsea, liverpool, spurz.....

But I am moving into a new place at some point soon and will hopefully have FSC etc and may have some DC Gooners match watching if there is enough space.

i figured Lucky Bar was the spot, as that was where i watched some world cup matches (ie the ones i could actually catch)...thanks man...

Lucky Bar or Casa de Saba for my Gunners fix

I live in Arlington and I go to Summers to watch matches if they're not on at home..

[blurtz23]

For the most part i watch 'em at home, but for the big games i usually go to Lucky Bar.

You gonna head there for the season opener?

[DcGooner]

Last year I went to Summers, Lucky Bar or Fado's in Chinatown.

This season, though, I think I'll be watching most games at home thanks to DirecTV and Setanta Sports USA/FSC.

[DaPrince84]

Wsup... I have a friend who lets me use the ArsenalTV.com account... so i watch matches there... or I jus DL torrents

nah, i'm actually going to be in from sunday through next wednesday so i'll be there (NY) for the opener, but i'm hoping to catch the match vs. Man City thre on the 26th (i'm assuming they'll pick it up)...

[DC_Gunner]

There's a very good gunners following in DC, and Lucky Bar is generally the place where the most people will be gather, for European games and games against the big five the place fills up and is usually at least 50% gunners, if not more.

oh and since there a bunch of DC Gooners reading this thread, i was just wondering is anyone else having problems with FSC? i've got comcast digital with FSC and the sound seems to be crapping out just about every other minute.

is this just me? it's driving me nuts!

I'm about to add that to my service, do you know how much extra that digital sports package is? Hoping to offset it by cancelling HBO after Entourage is over..

I have RCN and have never had a problem with FSC. I also get ESPN Deportes for virtually all the Champions League matches and Fox Sports en espanol which is good since they often show games at different times in case you miss one of the showings on FSC. I also get TV5 for the African Nations Cup. I'm a big fan.

I also go to Lucky Bar for matches that I can't get or big champions league matches during the work week. I'd definitely be up for getting together for a few matches though.

[Darth Norteño]

I'm strictly Lucky. Summers is closer, but it can't touch Lucky, for my taste.

[cooper7d7]

Has anyone seen Goonersaurus?

[Epikoinos]

i'll be in dc for the oct. 22 match against reading. sounds like my best bet is probably to go to lucky's?
