of mammoth proportions.\u00a0 The Flying Saucer has been handing out &#8220;free pizza if the Tigers score 100&#8221; coupons at recent games, and if they do it tonight I have a feeling they&#8217;ll be serving up a lot of pizza.\u00a0 I have a feeling this could be the highest score in Tiger history.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the Saucer, don&#8217;t forget, it&#8217;s Stella Artois glass night at the Saucer tonight at 7.\u00a0 That may or may not be where I go to watch the game; it depends on my opinion of their $2.75 Fire Sale beer.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t need any more Stella glasses so that won&#8217;t be a factor in my decision.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s $8 wine flight happy hour at Circa tonight, so I&#8217;ll probably stop by there for a flight sometime between 5 and 7.\u00a0 I usually request three wines of a particular variety, such as dry red, sweet white, etc.\u00a0 But their bartender House does such a good job selecting wines that this week I&#8217;m not going to give him any parameters at all &#8211; just &#8220;pick &#8217;em.&#8221;\u00a0 I&#8217;m not a wine expert yet but I&#8217;m learning.\u00a0 Last time I was there on a Wednesday I learned the difference between pinot gris and pinot grigio, which I previously thought were the same thing.\u00a0 Since my phone has Wi-Fi capability, I&#8217;ll hop on Wikipedia and read about the wines as I drink them.<\/p>\n<p>Circa, by the way, will be featured on this month&#8217;s <em>Definitely Downtown!<\/em>\u00a0TV show, hosted by &#8220;That Other Downtown Guy,&#8221;
