Thursday update

There’s news from Bardog! I’m just gonna copy/paste this.

Bardog beset with sprinkler pipe burst. Opening New Years Eve next. We are getting ready. Easier now to open for a party than to have restaurant ready for regular service since all product has been wasted. $150 open bar. Food buffet with prime rib, filet mignon, shrimp cocktail. 7pm-1:30am. Veuve Clicquot yellow label champagne toast  at midnight. Brunch Sunday will be open and then closed Monday to reevaluate.

Private party limited to 120 people.

Here’s the Eventbrite link to buy tickets.

SHOULD I LET HELL FREEZE OVER? Blind Bear is holding an Orange Bowl watch party Friday at 7. Tennessee vs. Clemson. One night only, should I root for the Vols? Jeannette the owner and her husband Wade have been good to me. It’d be a way to honor our late friend Mac who named his dog after the Vols’ stadium. And my new friend Davis is pretty cool.

Go Hogs! Things got scary but Arkansas took down Kansas in the Liberty Bowl in 3OT.

Tigers basketball vs. USF, FedExForum, 7:00 tonight. TV will be ESPN+.

Grizzlies on the road at Toronto, 6:30 PM, Bally Sports Southeast.

That’s it. Not a very newsy day. Back tomorrow.
