RockRaines Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I was thinking about this lately, I live up in Lincoln Park and I was wondering if anyone else lives in the area and does before/after game drinking and eating at one of the local bars. I have a group of about 5 or 6 sox fans and we are always looking for more people to take over a bar. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a post about a month back regarding a northside bar that was a self-proclaimed Sox bar. Maybe someone else can refer you to it. At least I think it was on this board.

southsider17 Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Also, I heard that Lucky Strike on Lincoln (just south of Diversey) is a Sox hangout. I've been there many a time, but never to watch a Sox game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some small bars on halsted and diversey that I figured coulld be over run with a decent number of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABearSoX Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I was at a small bar on Broadway one night, both the bar tenders were Die Hard Sox fans.....the one lady I think her name was Lee was a freakin baseball nut....I had a friend with me who was a scrubs fan and he made a dumbass remark....she didnt hesitate and smacked him upside the head.....it was great...

Wong & Owens Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 There is a bar on Clark I believe called Trace which is a Sox bar. I know this because I went to high school with one of the owners, and he is a southsider/diehard Sox fan. From what I hear, the staff there wear the jersey of the Cubs' opponent when the Cubs are in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think nice neighborhood is a little of an understatement...actually, I used to go down there after college...but now I wouldn't...too busy for me...that's why I need some sports bars in Bridgeport...then I'll move there.

If you ever get a chance, up the street is a place i used to live right by called Hoagie Hut, the food there is just awesome, great spicy fries and the burgers are good too. Their best sandwich is the grilled chicken with cheese and bacon, marvelous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
