Best bar to watch a Gopher away game?

Is this "Frankie's corner bar" in st. paul park, or "The Corner Bar" in mnpls?

Sorry to be dense, at first I thought "West side" meant west side of St. Paul and I got excited.

Haha I meant West Bank / Corner Bar, MPLS.

I live on the West Side in STP so must've been a Freudian slip!

West bank...

Haha yep I know better. Too many West sides/banks in my life apparently

 

[Spaulding!No!]

MAC's Industrial just in Northeast not far from DT has the sound up and usually a good crowd. Sallys like Irish said is good. It's big, there will be atmosphere, and usually good beer specials.

Great Reuben at MAC’s

Sad - I take it that it must be closed now? I haven't been there since watching the Penn St upset fourish years ago.

Honestly, if I had to choose, I might go with Surf Bar Waikiki as my choice.

People actually watch TV there?

They have finger-licking apps (I've been told)

Tom's Watch Bar is kinda cool

Been there once and was unimpressed. It was pretty close to when they opened, maybe they have their act together by now

Me too - I love the neighborhood so much. Grew up on the East Side and never really came over this way as a kid. Student taught at Humboldt, but that was it. Fast forward twenty years and I'd call it the best kept secret of Saint Paul.

Joe Senser's in Roseville will always be well packed for big time games.

For me, I just want to be surrounded by Gopher fans if I go to a bar. So that has pretty much meant needing to go near campus.

Sadly, the "Gopher Bar" in Saint Paul has historically let me down - more of a local alcoholic spot.

But you can get a great Coney
