Any recommendations for an Ankeny sports bar to watch the game tomorrow? Thanks.

I’d say benchwarmers has the best game watch feel to it. Not the best tv’s but it’s a good bar feel. Who’s on first has a nice set up, I’m not sure what the atmosphere is like though. I also think the OP is decent.

Benchwarmers isn't bad. I'd also add Sports Page to the list.

I've been curious about who's on 1st

I was there a couple months ago. It was okay, but had the vibe of a place that wasn't up to speed yet. I thought they'd been open for at least a couple months by then.

So I had a separate post asking if Wig and Pen was a good pizza place. Do they not have games on?

They do, not bad but it’s more of a restaurant. Not sure I’d go there for the purpose of watching a game.

I’m a huge sports page fan, but I’ve never game watched there.

I ate next to the Godfather once at Benchwarmers. He was a fan of the large pizza free pitcher special on Fridays.:campbell:
