Best Bar in Uptown/South End to Watch the Game this Sunday?

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

Hey guys, I'm thinking about driving up from Winston to watch the game at a good Panthers atmosphere. I haven't lived in Charlotte for almost 10 years, but I remember "Cans" and "All American Pub" being good places to watch a game. Is this still the case?

Any other recommendations?

Thanks for any info, and, yes, I understand the hate for my username. Ha

depends on the vibe you are looking for... personally ive enjoyed Ed's Tavern or Dilworth Neighborhood Grill. That is since I have turned 35. Now ask me 24-34... Slate and AAP. If you want a rager those are the locations until they close down end of this year (I think).

I'm 36, but I am sometimes in the mood for a rager. I appreciate it, man. Slate and AAP are closing for good?

Agree. I’ve been everywhere and Ed’s is the best. It’s a sport/fan environment.

All American/Slate area is more frat boy/bar slut environment…but there are a couple bars around there and further north that are ok.

Eds is still most comfy imo and has it all, eye candy, die hard fans, and decent food, not overcrowded but not dead, nice outdoor space, pool.

Good to hear, brother. You think showing up an hour before kickoff is enough to get a seat at the bar?

Not trying to turn the convo dark, but was it Ed's where that dude got shoved into oncoming traffic out front?

75-90min to be safe.

Ehhhh, I like 2 hours, hour and a half at most, especially if you want an outdoor seat (which I’d suggest)

jealous man I’m fuging stuck living in the desert in mid west and there are a few Charlotte spots I miss, this being one of them

It happened at Ed’s also. Dude got shoved out the front door into the street and was hit by an oncoming car.
