Stadium Grill on Thornydale and Orange Grove is a good place..they are the unofficial home of the Cardinals for away games....

North Tucson or farther south?

 

[Jttsaz]

North west..just off of I-10 and Orange Grove..In the Sam Levitz strip mall. It's kind of a typical Bar and Grill but it has a bunch of big screen HD TV's..beer is cold..

I meant him. Where does his family live? The north side of Tucson does have nicer places though.

I don't know him I was just suggesting a place..Other places would be the Fox and Hound by Foothills Mall, and there is a great place by the U of A called Sam Hughes Place..

Fox & Hound. Foothills mall. Learned the hard way when we were trying to get the Cards-Skins game. Went to 3 places prior who wouldn't show it. Incredible. Twice I heard, "This is Tucson, we don't watch the Cardinals". I said, "this isn't college man, support your state's team". There's a place in the mall. They had Tennesee and Houston on the big screen but no Cards game anywhere.

Stadium Grill definately has the Cards on...

I'll be north of the university - Stadium Grill looks like my best option. Thanks!

I've always wondered how the Cardinals are supported in Tucson (?). I suspect there are a lot of Tucson Cowboy or Raider fans that wouldn't change their allegiance to root for a team from Phoenix. And I don't believe the transparent (and kind of lame, IMO) name switch to "Arizona" Cardinals necessary fooled anyone...but I could be wrong.

I've been a season tix holder since 96 (going to games since 88) and on my way up I always see a few Cars going to the games. I am glad gas has gone back down because the drive up and back was killing me.

when I went to school there the blackout rule was still in effect, and I didn't have the money to go to the games in Tempe. I think that hurt quite a bit for locals. A lot of my friends in school had grown up in Phoenix and were Cards fans.

Also check out famous SAMs. There's a bunch of them on all sides of town. I can assure you that the game will be on at my place at Campbell and river!

AHHHHH.... my Tucson disgust had faded lately.


Thanks for rejuvenating it for me.

Have you ever considered the bus that runs up there?
Lots of die hard Cards fans ride and ususlly share food and beverage.
