Ghent Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I just moved to the area and watched the Dallas game from home... I wouldn't mind watching us go 4-1 while pounding some beers with some fellow Skins fans. Anyone know of any good Skins bars in Norfolk around Granby or Ghent? :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custer Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Welcome to tidewater. Remember, keep one hand on you wallet, and wear your B&G with pride... 1310 AM, ESPN radio has a local *******., Toney Mecurio. The afternoon show from 3-on has call in. Your best bet would be to listen (if you can stand mecurio, I think he is Tony Homo's DILF) He is a vitrolic cow**** :dallasuck lover, but has been here forever and can hook ya into skins bar... One thing sucks round here, I wonder if the Navy aint 1/2 Cow****, 1/2 Iggle and 1/2 Steelers fan. It is strange to have DC the closest market, and the number of uneducated folks who follow those jerks instead of the skins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car has the Skins flags and my radio is on 102.1 the game all day long... Mecurio sucks. I'll never listen to that clown again... I can't believe how many dallas fans are in this area. I'm always seeing cars with Dallas flags... I've had a few friendly :dallasuck exchanges with them at red lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammemphis Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I live one block from Granby street. Watched the game at home with my wife but afterwords strolled over to AJ Gators expecting to see other Skins fans. Walked into gators and shouted how bout them Redskins. To my surprise, however, there was nothing but Dallas fans who weren't very happy about my gesture. So, what i'm trying to say is... welcome to the neighborhood and hope to see you out supporting the team. Hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reic Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 AJ Gators in Downtown Norfolk is the place to go. Once I get some extra cash, we can pull something together. The owner of Miss kitties in virginia beach is a redskins fan, that would be a fun place to watch the game, and is only a mile from my house.

I'll be at AJ's to watch the Philly game. Does it get very crowded? Do you need to get there early to get a table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldysknzfn1 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Welcome to the melting pot of the NFL. There are so many Puke fans here it's ridiculous. The military brings in all kinds of fans. I usually watch the games w/my b-i-l(who's a member here now..yay!). So I can't help w/the bar suggestions....Just wanted to welcome you to the area...Skins need all the fans they can get around here! Stupid, ignorant Puke fans are everywhere..uugghhh *edit* you don't live far from me..Colonial Ave is about 5 blocks from me..I live off of Church St in the Olde Huntersville section. Not the greatest section in the city..but it's home...again welcome to the neighborhood! *edit 2* Wouldn't mind gathering at some point w/some Skins fans here tho. That would be fun. Hopefully if you all pull it together and post it..I will try to make it at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsFan70 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Welcome to the Tidewater/Hampton Roads area! Definitely nice to have another Redskins fan in the area, we can NEVER have too many of those. I usually watch the game at home, so I'm afraid I won't be much help as to where to watch the game, but definitely wanted to say welcome. At a minimum you have the Beach Blitz to look forward to in May as a gathering place for the Redskins fans! Again, welcome.... Hail! :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its off Granby. It has plenty of plasma screens. If you ever make it out Va. Beach, Buffalo Wild Wings is cool (kind of over rated though) or ShoreBreak. If you're feeling like a baller........check out "Just Georges" off Laskin Road. Its the best seafood place in the city, and you can hit the buffet line up and watch the games. PLus they tons of flat wide screens all over the place. The place is off the hook. :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tone_dubbz Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I heard Georges is a huge Steelers bar. Do any Skins fans go there? Not necessarily. But who cares anyway. I watched the Bears/Skins game last year at Georges and they had plenty of Burgandy and Gold all over the place. I also remember watching the Dallass/Packers thursday night game last year and that place was jammed packed with cowgirls fans. Keep in mind it was the only game playing. But being that the Skins are doing good so far, I'm pretty sure you'll find a descent amount of Skins fans there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins81a Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 CP shuckers on shore drive. Bartenders are Skins fans and place has alot of skins fans and it is a local spot. Stay away from 1310 and Meatball man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay away from 1310 and Meatball man! Yeah, ShoreBreak off of Shore Drive has a descent amount of Skins fans. Sharxx at the Ocean Front has some supporters as well. I think the manager is a Skins fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWalton40 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm in downtown Norfolk on York St. I like AJ's over Baxters though I did watch the Saints game at Baxters, watched all of preseason at AJ's. I don't do well when other fans are around particularly Cowboys fans so I watched that one at home too. Sounds like we may have a little Skin's fans posse in the area. We should set up something up. Shorebreak in VB is nice, the wait staff in particular, but its a drive and its much better to be able to walk home I think...if you need to. We could try one out this week and maybe some others to find a place that feels like home. Maybe someplace on Colley possibly. Red dog, kellys, or colley cantina. If you're going to AJ's, I'll come watch. And welcome to the area. Mecurio is the absolute worst. We at least have some other options, he use to be the only gig in town for the afterwork commute.

riggins44 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 With all the military in the area, there is too many Cowpuke fans. Won't listen to Mecurio on 1310 in the afternoons. He made an unrepectful remark about ST when he passed away. Being so close to DC, most Redskin fans watch from home. You may try to start a group that gets together each week. None that I know of here on the peninsula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldysknzfn1 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 . You may try to start a group that gets together each week. None that I know of here on the peninsula. This would be great! I would come to a few here & there....I would try to get my in-laws to come..but I don't know if they would go for it...but I could try..and if not...I'll come by myself..I'm a big girl now..lol..we should try to work out something...I can't make this weekend's but perhaps something down the road...anywhere is fine w/me...I can drive...and I can give a ride if someone doesn't want to drive..I don't drink any more so I can be a designated driver...I think it would be fun!

Milkbone Jackson Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I lived in good ol Norfuk for about 8 years (now back in DC), the Hooters at Waterside used to have a decent skins fan base - small TV's though. AJ Gators is OK. I lived on Melrose ave by ODU but I've heard they've torn down a lot of the bars in that area. Does anyone remember an old bar right outside of downtown (on Brambleton I think) that was painted burgandy with no sign except a Redskins helmet?

inPORTISweTRUST Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 What Up, I go to ODU which is right off hampton. We should try THE EDGE, they have a 7ft Projection screen, pool tables, and tv all around. Not too big of a crowd either, We would own the place.

The sign was taken down . I think alot of doctors hang out there now. Not sure tho...I remember seeing that every time I drove down that street and thought...cool..a Skins helmet!..lol. It was Brambleton btw but it sat off of the "service road"..not far from Scope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to AJ's on Granby this sunday with a buddy (another skins fan). I'll be wearing a Sean Taylor T-Shirt with 21 on the front and back. Keep an eye out for me if you go. On another note, did you all hear that John Castleberry is done on 102.1 The Game? They announced it today. I work out of my car and had him on everyday from 2-4. Red Zebra owns The Game... This has Snyder written all over it... He probably made some deal with some lame Nationally Syndicated show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
