I'm coming to Lincoln for the second time in 27 years this weekend. I'm not going to the game but can anyone tell me where I could go watch it? I'll be staying in northeast Lincoln so a watch site in that area or anywhere away from the downtown football craziness would be preferred. Thanks!
Watch site in Lincoln?

You want to watch it away from the fun?
Maybe hit up a Sears? Do they still sell TV's at Sears? You could just watch it there I guess.

2 times in 27 years and you don't want to even go downtown because of "crowds", let alone go to the game? geez...
The size that knows every sports bar in Lincoln, Nebraska will have the game on.
Sorry man, I just found your question extremely weird.
Thanks, yes I bought tickets from you two years ago to take my (then) 88 year old father to the game. I appreciate the offer. The purpose of this visit, however, wasn't for game day and it will be all I can do to carve out space for watching most of the game.
When one has been in town once in 27 years, he does not know the sportsbars in Lincoln. Yes, I could have done some internet surfing to find them but this is usually an informed and helpful group to point me to a good site.
I'll second Sportscasters. Also there is a Brewsky's sports bar at 70th and Van Dorn that I've watched games at and it's good for that and tossing down a few beers. Food is decent, but not spectacular.
Do they still have the Tilted Kilt at Gateway Mall.
Also, where are the good Breweries in Lincoln. One of them might be an option.

Totally understand and get your question and your point. There is a newer Buffalo Wild Wings down on 88th & Highway 2 that is open, high ceilings with a lot of nice clear TV's, on the southeast side of Lincoln. Like someone said, Sportscaster's would be a good bet. I would stay away from the Watering Hole. Crappy big screen with a terrible picture and a weird setup that doesn't really work for watching games.
If you want to WATCH the game, I would stay away from the whole Gong Show that goes on downtown. I have a hard time watching a game in a packed bar. I want to watch and hear the game.
