Today starts 6 Nations Rugby with Italy facing France and England vs. Scotland today. Tomorrow Ireland will stomp all over Wales. It's funny how there are so many "Irish" pubs around, yet it's very difficult to find one carrying the Rugby games - however all of them are carrying the Superbowl. One place you can find the games is Fado in Philadelphia. Not only will Fado carry the full line up of 6 Nations, they also carry Celtic games too. You may have to rise a bit early and have your bum on a barstool by 8am, but the drink specials make it all worth it. If you've never seen a professional rugby game, this weekend is worth the watch. It's like the NFL without the pads and they're wearing shorts (sorry that was my human's comment, not mine). Check out Fado's site if you want more info http://www.fadoirishpub.com/philadelphia/ and GO IRELAND!
Even the Jack Russell's in Ireland are tougher, check out my cousin in Ireland getting into the game.
