Winning teams should preregister here. Registration does not guarantee your team a table, so you’ll want to channel your Leslie Knope-level preparation skills and get there early. Barcadia Baton Rouge is at 3347 Highland Road.
LOL while enjoying a burger at The Station on Wednesdays
Those needing a little pick-me-up to get themselves through the work week should head over to The Station Sports Bar and Grill. While eating burgers and sipping one of more than 100 brews of beer, you will be able to hear local comics do their thing.
Burger aficionados can step outside their comfort zone with a selection from the restaurant’s new menu. Cheese-lovers can try the Blitz Burger topped with mozzarella sticks and cheese, while meat lovers can get their chicken and beef fix simultaneously with the Farm Burger topped with chicken tenders.
Can’t make it this Wednesday, 8-10 p.m? No problem, The Station will host comedians and drink specials, including $2 Bud Lights and $3 tequila shots, every Wednesday all summer long. The Station is at 4608 Bennington Ave.
