I just recieved this email from the Mad Dog In The Fog Pub mailing list... We will be showing the Champions League live this week as follows: Tuesday 24th (yes tomorrow/today) Bayer Leverkusen v Man Utd LIVE @ 11:30 Wednesday 25th Liverpool v Basel LIVE @ 11:30 PSV v Arsenal @ 1.45 We are considering showing all th English teams throughout the Champions League this season - depending on customer turnout & your enthusiasm. My notes... The Mad Dog is located on the corner of Haight and Fillmore (Lower Haight area). I know this is short notice, but I haven't found anywhere else near that is showing the European matches, so I was just hoping some people might want to try and make it out, so they would be more apt to keep showing them in the future. Last year I caught one (1) Liverpool CL match. I'd like to see more this year.
Did Mad Dog end up showing all of these matches? Just curious as I was a Mad Dog regular for weekend EPL as well as CL matches while I lived in SF. I heard Steve was selling his interest in the bar (it must've happened as the voice on the Football Hotline is different) and didn't know if they would remain "the home for football in SF"; but it appears they have. Between the Mad Dog and the Kezar Pub, you guys have it awfully good in the City.
hehe, well...I didn't end up getting to go. I just couldn't justify it to my boss with all the work we had to do. I don't know much about Steve, but I've heard that the original no longer does, but still hangs on for footballing consultancy. They've repainted the whole place, got new furniture and got rid of the dank.
Is Stuart still behind the bar? (he who had his 15 minutes of fame in the adidas commercial filmed at the Mad Dog)
I really only go there for matches, so I'm not that familiar with the personel. I normally go to Martin Macks.
I haven't been able to drag my lazy carcass over there for the live Saturday games yet this season. I did go over on Labor Day though and I didn't recognize the people behind the bar. I'm not really a regular though.
