Anyone know if there will be a gamewatch for tomorrow's game in the Cedar Rapids area. I have Dish Network so I need to find somewhere to watch...preferably with some other clone fans to balance out the Hawk crowd that will be present since their game is at 11.

Some people talked about either 3rd base or BWW last night in a different thread. I will be in town and attending. I don't care which one I just don't want to be the only one with a bunch of hawks and no good view of a tv.

I don't have time today but maybe someone should call either place and make sure 100% they are going to be showing our game. I have gotten burned by both places before.

I was in the Hiawatha BWW for part of the Texas game and they had the game on a lot of tvs there. The place wasn't packed with ISU fans, but there were a decent amount.

I watched the UNLV game at 3rd base back in 2008...decent number of clones were there, but Iowa was not playing at that time so the Hawks were not out.

UGGG! I just ordered the Sports Pak from Direct so I could watch it at home.

My wife and I went to BWW on Blairs Ferry (she is Poke fan) to watch the Okie St Vs Nebby game a few weeks back. Manager put game on TV for us event thought the rest of the place was Hawk fans watching th eIowa -Wiskey game.

Denos usuaaly has the Clones on but anywhere you go Saturday will be lousey with TavernHawks.

I went over to the BWW in Cedar Rapids (The one by Westdale mall)for the Oklahoma game and they didn't have it. In fact, I was told even if they did have it, that they wouldn't put it on after the Ohio State vs Wisconsin game started. Needless to say, I have never been back to that particular BWW.

I live in CR and have yet to find a clone friendly place to watch a game. 3rd base shouldnt be the "watch" location, always a ton of hawks db's there, even when they arent playing. if someone finds a place that accomodates isu fans, please let me know. im tired of watching games on the littlest tv in the joint due Iowa city comm college.

I've found the same...I think we should all decide to show up at the same bar to watch the game, whether its 3rd Base, Denos or BWW so at least there's a decent number of clones in the same place...it would at least give us a fighting chance to get it on one of the big tv's...possibly even with sound???

I've talked to 3rd base and they are not clone supporters at all. I do have some ins at bww on the northside and i can usually get what i want there but we are talking about fighting the hawk fans. At this point, im going to a buddies house who will have the game. Like i said before, if you figure somethign out, let me know. I'm all for ******* some squawks off!

Just show up someplace with enough people to vastly outnumber the tavern hox. I can't believe the owners of a place will keep a game off the TVs, especially a chain like BWW, if the majority or even a large percent of the fans there want the game up.

If someone wants to call bills and see if they will have it on we can all go there.

I just called the number that I found online for Bills and it said was disconnected so maybe someone can look up what they have in the phone book and call it.

Shoot, I got my hair cut at Schmitty's over lunch so I was right next door and could have at least gotten the number if you'd posted a few hours earlier!

You could go back tonight and ask...I just gave you a legit excuse to go to a bar tonight.

This is the number I found online for Bill's. I can't call for a few more hours since I'm at work but maybe someone else can call in the mean-time.
