Are any of the bars showing sports open late?
 
New to the Villages, I noticed that most of the bars around Brownwood were closing relatively early (10PM or so). Made me think about when NFL season rolls around and the primetime games start around 8:15PM. Seems like RJ Gators would be the only option to be able to watch the whole game at a bar as it closes at midnight? Is that correct? Do any of the places do anything special during the MNF games? I've been to other parts of Florida where MNF is a big thing at sports bars.

Gators at Brownwood has the most TV's, but attracts big groups depending on who is playing.

I don't get it. They are all open late. 10 PM is late!

The standing joke around here is that 9 pm is curfew. Go to any square at say 9 15 and it will be pretty much empty.

Nothing good ever happens after 9:00 pm.

Since those evening NFL games are on national TV and don't get over until almost midnight, just stay home and watch them. The drinks are cheaper too!:a040:

Best viewing spot is in your own home.

World of Beer stays open later than most as it is popular with the restaurant workers after their shifts.

How about buying a tv for your home.

I guess that's a "no".

Nothing wrong with watching a game at a bar as long as you drink responsibly

World of Beer, at Brownwood and Spanish Springs, are open until midnight on Friday and Saturday. But, they close at 10PM on other days.
