UConn Bars in Charlotte?

Anyone live in Charlotte and know of any UConn bars?

I seem to recall that the Alumni Association has game watches planned for Charlotte. Might be on their web site, or give them a call.
 
There isn’t a “UConn Bar” per se but we do a ton of stuff through the Alumni Association at Carmella’s in Montford

What part of town are you going to be in @Colin G ? We go out for games all the time so can point you in the right direction

Perfect.. I’d keep an eye out for game watches at Carmellas as they do like 4-5 a year usually. I know there is one for the KU game on Dec 1 as an example: Charlotte: Kansas vs. UConn Basketball Game Watch.

Your best bet for a place you know will have any channel and will put the game on for you is All American Pub in South End. We always wind up popping over to Dilworth Neighborhood Grille (Dilworth) and The Public House (Uptown) too. Most places are pretty accommodating though.. shouldn’t have too much trouble getting a game put on so long as UNC, State, and/or Duke aren’t playing a big game and football season is over with.

Side note- highly recommend Eds Tavern during a college football Saturday. Just a great experience on their patio, Selwyn Pub is phenomenal too.
 
Angry Ales in South Park area? That still around? They were good about putting a game on for me many moons ago.

They are, it’s on Montford same street as Carmella’s.

Truth is most places will put any game on so long as it isn’t busy. Just can’t walk into like Sycamore on a Saturday at 1pm and expect that to happen

Diehard UConn fan…..only issue is that I’m not an alum
 
I have nothing to do with charlotte but will chime in that any venue that regularly hosts alumni events and other things like that will usually be receptive on other nights to watch games at a bar as well. repeating business, after all.

You don’t have to be to attend- it’s just sponsored by the Alumni Association which helps drive attendance. There are plenty of non-alumni that show up. I used to run the Charlotte chapter and we had like ~60 people one year for a Syracuse football game watch party. I’d venture 40% of the attendees were just “fans” of the school and program rather than “alumni”.

Also if you want to shoot me a PM- happy to chat further

another vote for Selwyn...especially their mesquite dry rub wings
 
Hopefully you all see this, but we go to Carmella’s whenever possible. I volunteer with the alumni association so I help organize the official game watches, but were there all the time. They always promise to have the games on with sound and they have great drink specials. We’ll be there tonight if you want to pop by!
 
Slight bump to say Charlotte now that Liam is drafted might be slightly nicer for UConn fans!

And Charlotte is my transfer airport when I head to FLA and while under construction for like 3 years now I see a lot of bk and other sport teams whenever I travel thru. Qatar's soccer team, UVA tennis, Bryant's M's BK team, etc. Fun to chat with and grab a selfie with.
