Vibe: You would never insult your team by catching only their Sportcenter highlights, but you’d never insult your friends by throwing a less than legendary birthday party. So what’s the solution when your birthday party falls on the same night as your team’s big game? New York City’s Bar Twelve, where you get sports, big beats, and, of course, a good drinking atmosphere (beer pong encouraged), all under one roof (they only ask you take a shower and leave your jersey and sweat pants at home).
Spot: A total of 22 altogether, plasma screens everywhere you look display all the day’s big games, while the nightly DJ overlooking the front bar keeps the place delightfully clubby. Private booths are accented with state of the art lighting and sound systems, which keep up with whatever mood the DJ’s spinning.
Grub: As you’d expect, Bar Twelve serves all your favorite American fare, because the only thing that could make sports, drinking, and pelvic thrusting more American is something grilled or fried to go with it.
The Deal: As the bar itself says, “there is never an excuse not to play drinking games!” Bar Twelve is perfect for those who like their sports and their drinking competitive. You won’t miss a minute of any big game, and you don’t have to sacrifice a dance floor to do it. Slammin beats, beer pong ($10 pitchers for those playing), plasmas everywhere…this place is a playground for the young, beautiful, and sports-crazed of New York City.
