USA Jags Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 Can anyone suggest some good Friday afternoon downtown bars? Fun atmosphere, visitor friendly, happy hour... I'm trying to find a place where a large group of South Alabama fans can hang out Friday afternoon and socialize with other Husker fans. Would like walking distance from Cornhusker Marriott Any help would be appreciated Quote Link to comment

It's been a while since I've been out and about in Lincoln, but the Haymarket area was always a good time. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Try the Railyard in the Haymarket. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I would do the railyard if you're going to have a lot of people, or Barrys for the roof top Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 What the last two posters said, the Rail Yard would be perfect for a crowd. Plus there's good food everywhere down there. Quote Link to comment
USA Jags Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Thanks for the replies. Barry's roof top looks like a good spot to hangout Quote Link to comment

USA Jags Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Do you guys suggest eating at Misty's Friday night before the game? I hear it's a fun Nebraska tradition. If so, which Misty's is better? Do I need to make reservations? Thanks for you help! Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yeah do it night before game and go to the one in Havelock. Quote Link to comment

Hello It depends on what you like For me- it would be the #1 thing on the list, nothing close in 2nd place Almost all in restaurant NU fans in red. Families, kids, old men, middle aged people, some young singles all out for a good time. Doesn't matter your age- unless youre a young 20 something single maybe- with a goal of getting drunk- chasing women- Mistys not a good choice if that's your thing. No drunks and rowdies, just people having fun in a place loaded with NU memorabilia from the 60s, 70s, 80s etc, Something time forgot The NU band comes in and does a couple of sets in a designated area, everyone really gets into it, stands sings etc Ive taken lots of out of town guests to it, and they all raved about it. One of my buddies sons got his pic taken with a bunch of cheerleaders. Go to the Havelock location- the downtown one, doesn't have the atmosphere, not even close On top of it, you will get a great meal. Mistys is a long time legend for a reason, food is always fantastic- Nebraska steaks. You aren't going to get that by going to some bar in Haymarket or Railyard. They don't take reservations on that night, but they have a huge bar and Ive never had a problem getting a table, after getting a couple of drinks and an appetizer in the bar. Service is always great too- lots of older wait staff who have been there forever. No 16 year old kid hostess taking 15 minutes to figure out if there is a table open and having you wander around the restaurant stuff. Good experience. 1 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 It's like when people said to go to Sidetracks...the worst and lamest place ever. But at least Misty's does have great food Quote Link to comment
