Indiana-Marquette Pregame Meetup

[hper50 1,667]

Does anyone know of a meetup before the IU-Marquette game in Chicago? I'm looking for a bar near the arena that will be open for the Colts vs. Falcons game in Berlin at 8:30 AM CT.

I don’t think there are a ton of bars right around the United Center unless I’m mistaken. It’s early, but I’m sure some places that do the whole EPL / boozy brunch thing will be open. Just curious if anything’s already planned. Thanks!

EDIT: per a friend in Chicago, not much around the UC, but says there's plenty in the West Loop about 1.5 mi from UC. Would love to have a bunch of Hoosiers and Colts fans watching both!

I live in Chicago and not far from the UC, and no there are not a lot of bars in the vicinity of it. But if you want to watch early an early game like the Colts, my guess is Cleo's on Chicago Ave, would have it on. It's a 10 minute walk from the UC, has decent food, and is a soccer bar so on the weekends they open early for premier league games. https://www.cleospub.com/ Might be worth checking in with them. I see some games on that day, so my hunch is they will be open. If you have any questions about other bars near the UC, let me know.
