MacDinton's Pub is ballin. Leroy Salmons. Champps America is the best food/sports experience maybe that Ive ever had. All of those have tons of bigscreens and big bars w/ great food. Champps is in South Tampa and is by far my #1 pick. If money is an issue, then head to Leroy's bc its very cheap and still good environment/food. Hope that helps ya

If you want a sports bar, then I suggest either:

- Press Box (on S Dale Mabry, don't be afraid of exterior to enter- very popular spot with TVs all over and cheap beer)
- Hattricks (this is an awesome place downtown; geared towards hockey fans, but hockey is out and there are tons of televisions- real "pub" feel to it. trolley stop outside, too, in case you wanted to head to Channelside or Ybor after)

You also can't go wrong with a Wing House. They are exactly like Hooters but, in my opinion, with much better food.

Thanks ColaCock! Dale Mabry is not too far from our hotel... Ybor is gonna be a zoo, so we will probably avoid that area after the parade.

IMO any primary Clemson fanbase bar or sports restaurant. It would be so quiet in there that you'd hear everything played on the TVs. Plus you might make some easy money betting some of the patrons before the game, and get your meal/drinks paid for.

Make sure however you have all exits mapped out beforehand....as Robert Deniro said in Ronin, "never walk into a room you don't already know how to walk out of".....

If you want to have a lot of fun, just look for a bar where the sheep are tied up in the parking lot and the Orange Kool-Aid is pouring out of the door.

No taters allowed down here. And if you want something to do while you watch Clempson give up 80, Splitsville, in Channelside, is a cool place to watch and has bowling and pool. Also a Hooters closeby.
