Charlotte is full of bleacher bars for football fans to watch their teams, theres even different cheering sections.
But now theres a new way to watch Monday Night Football on the big screen. And by big screen I am not talking about a 52 inch flat screen, I am referring to a movie theater.
Last night, I watched the Panthers lose at the EpiCentre Theater. They showed the big game on the big screen and had a full bar under it. And even better, there were no movie theatre prices - Bud lights were a mere $2 and admittance was even free.
They have trivia during commercials and timeouts so you can really get into the game and a game of your own. There was also a raffle for a Bud Light Grooler (grill-slash-cooler) and tickets to Panthers games. It wasnt the typical theater atmosphere where you have to whisper and put your phone on vibrate, it was more like a sports bar with a really, really big television. Mez-slash-EpiCentre Theaters will host all Monday Night football games next week the box office will be showing the Vikings vs. Packers.
If you thought it was bad that the Panthers lost, it could be worse at least youre not Jake Delhomme or Cubby each week the Panthers lose, Cubby from Brotha Freds AM Mayhem will be forced to feel the pain of the Panthers loss. This morning Cubby the cowboy had to ride the mechanical bull at Whiskey River for the entire four-hour duration of the morning radio show, without intermission. Now that takes balls which he hopefully didnt injure.
Mez-slash-EpiCentre Theaters not only converts the theater into a sports bar on Mondays, but this Saturday, Oct. 3, its going to be a nightclub. The Premiere Party with DJ Roonie G live in video concert.
