Editor’s note: This article will continue to be updated as we find new spots to watch football games this season.
Though we’d all like to be in Tiger Stadium, A.W. Mumford Stadium or watching the field at an away game, the truth is, you don’t have to be in the stadium to get in on the action. There are plenty of good seats to take around Baton Rouge to spectate.
Restaurants, bars and breweries in town will proudly display the game of the week and offer drinks and dishes to keep you satisfied for all four quarters.
Make reservations, get there early to secure the table or scope out a spot at the bar. The places listed here boast multiple TVs, big screens, air conditioning and other like-minded fans. Not to mention, you probably won’t have to worry about post-game contraflow near the stadium.
