My brother and I visit my mom in Sun City every October. After putting her to bed at night, we like to go out and have some beers and play pool/darts.
I was *born *there, but it’s like a foreign city to me now. And I feel so…so…old. (Still in my 30s…technically.)
We always end up at McDuffy’s, which is near the Peoria Sports Complex. Yuck. I hate that place. The music is so loud that conversation is impossible. The bouncers are…let’s just say aggressive. I wasn’t allowed in last year with a hooded sweatshirt. In Portland, you can’t get in a bar *without *a hooded sweatshirt. I can’t even imagine enjoying that place when I went to ASU…but I guess I did, because I went to the one in Tempe quite a few times. But that one was a sports bar. This McDuffy’s *claims *to be a sports bar, but it’s really a night club with wet t-shirt contests. (Ok, ok, I’m old. Get off my lawn!)
Anway…does anyone in AZ have a suggestion for a nice, quite pub with pool tables…somewhere between Bell Road and Thunderbird and near 82nd Ave? A real sports bar would be cool, too.
Thanks!
