Countdown to fun at Pleasure Pier begins

GALVESTON — Landry’s employees and their families put Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier workers to the test Sunday as they prepare for the official opening.


 
Galveston County’s best place to watch the Super Bowl?
By Jordan Godwin |  | (7)
We’re working on a story that will provide readers the best spots around Galveston County to watch the upcoming Super Bowl, and we need your help.

I’m sure there are several great spots on the island to watch the big game, and I’m guessing League City offers a few other options. Where did you watch the Super Bowl between the Packers and Steelers last year? I know a lot of people host their own Super Bowl parties at their houses these days, but we’re looking for the best local business to watch the game.

Throw out a few suggestions, and we’ll see what we come up with. Local business and bar owners, feel free to promote your own joint by commenting at the bottom of this blog, and we’ll do some research.

Super Bowl XLVI will take place on Feb. 5, and Madonna will perform at halftime (zzz). I hope she won’t be allowed to play anything from 1992 to the present. Go ahead and make your Cowboys and Texans jokes about neither team being there if it makes you feel better.

I personally think it’ll be the Patriots and the Giants, a rematch of the 2007 Super Bowl.

In that game, I think the Giants will win 31-21.

Just a fun little prediction to throw out there.

For the West End of the Island (and anyone you thinks they can handle the West End people) it would be Buck's Bar in Jamaica Beach. No doubt.

I expect Brick House Tavern to see a large crowd.

$5 beers, noisey crowds and people standing in front of the TV.
No thanks.
The 1080p in my living room and sale rate beer beats them all.
I don't think the 49's can beat the Pats.

Well Gary, I like that you think the 49ers are going to make it. That's what I'm pulling for. If they do, I won't be looking for a bar to watch the game, I'll be glued to the set at home. However, if the Giants win Sunday, I may check out one of the bars around Clear Lake.

Tx Pit Stop BBQ will be my spot with the $1.50 beers and $2.00 Margaritas. I Can't get enough of their dry bones.
