Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

any btsc members from southern cal area?

Specifically, Palm Springs area?  I'm heading out there for vacation and might try to go to a sports bar for either one of the last two games. 

Great game yesterday!!! Can't count out #7 at all.  Maybe we're evolving into a team that can't grind out a lead late in the game by running the ball but one that other teams fear if our o gets the ball late in the game.

Game ball goes to either Timmons or Fox for some big heads up plays at crucial times.

I used to live in SoCal, but not in the Palm Springs area. Check the site below, you will be able to find a Steeler bar anywhere in the country. Have a blast.

There's a Regular on this site

named SoCalSteelerfan or something along those lines.

To the tune of the classic children's song "This Old Man" (the part with nick nack patty whack)

Big Snack, Silverback, take the Dawg Pound's Bone, the Black and Gold sent the Brownies crying home.

SoCal is black and gold

and not just when its on fire. There are so many Steeler fans down here its astonishing. Any bar playing the game will have representatives, hot little numbers in #43 jerseys not at all uncommon.
They drink like they mean it up in 29 Palms.

I'd love to be!

I hate michigan. Its cold.

My company is based out of Los Angeles, so maybe sometime I’ll find myself there with you guys.

When you have 2 cities combining for like 200 million people steeler fans are good n plenty i would imagine.

I talked to flaherty's black and gold

It is a place listed on the PG site as a Steeler bar, but they are no longer one. They do have the Sunday NFL package and it might be a place for me to check out and possibly run into a Steeler fan or two. It seems like the main hangout for the SoCal Steeler club is in Canyon lake, and I think that is a bit out of the way for where I am going. I’m trying to get somewhere for maybe one of the two games. Thanks for the feedback!

have fun

too bad you’re not closer to the ocean – I think there’s quite a few of us in a close area. If I get off my ass, might try to round up a group for Sunday.

back, but never posted

about what I did. We ended up going to the Yardhouse in Rancho Cucomuga and the Yardhouse in Irvine for the two games. Saw Steeler fans at the places and then out and about during our visit. Never got to a “steeler bar” but we had a good time at both places.
