    Hi all,
    Any last minute thoughts on venues in the city to watch the VP debate while eating? I would be especially grateful for a south loop, west loop, Pilsen, Bridgeport, Greektown locale.

    There is an NFL game being broadcast tonight, as well as three college football games, two more MLB playoff games, and two NBA exhibition games (!). Good luck finding a place with a TV devoted to a VP debate. Have you considered staying in and ordering out?

    Too far from the area and too late, most likely, but Small Bar on Division had last week's debate on, and they have food.

    Small Bar
    2049 West Division Street, Chicago, IL 60622

    You might check with Maria's Community Bar, I believe Ed put the first Presidential debate on (via projector), and you can always bring in carry out from PHB next door. For that matter, I think PHB has been airing the debates as well, but I'd call first to confirm.

    I walked into Weegee's on Thursday night and was surprised to see a projector set up showing the VP debate, so that's probably another option to view the next one. No food but you can carryout or order in.

    Club Lago at Orleans and Superior always has the debates on, and it's fun to watch them there.
