BCS Championship 2013

So this is my first post!  I know the name is "guitarsandbourbon.com" so I really expected my first post would be mainly about music, but since the BAMA vs ND game was last night I couldn't pass up on a good topic.  So here we go!

As any man should, I love football and, as were most football fans, I was looking forward to watching the game with some friends and family.  We decided on the Mellow Mushroom, which by now is a pretty large pizza chain.  If you haven't heard of it, I would look up a locator (okay here I did it for you) to try some southern style pizza.

It began in 1974 in Atlanta and has since expanded.  As my brother-in-law described it, "they do a great job of NOT making it feel like a chain restaurant."  Obviously they have lots of different pizzas, and I tried what was called the "Mellowterranean", a pizza complete with olives, feta cheese and a side of tzatziki sauce (it didn't disappoint!).  From what I could gather out of one visit, they have a plethora of other options, such as calzones, quality sandwiches, and a popular appetizer involving pretzels and a cheese made with Abita Turbodog beer (why are you still reading this?)  Some items are certainly regional, so expect to see some variations; which brings me to the beer.  In my home state of Kentucky and the relatively new location in Louisville on Shelbyville Road, they offer some of Kentucky's little-known but up and coming beers, including multiple beers finished in bourbon barrels (such as Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale).   All-in-all, I recommend it to all beer, sports and pizza lovers.  Here's a shot of the inside:

So anyway, back to football:  I would be lying if I said I've never been anywhere better to watch sports, but this is still way above average.  The large beer selection, varied tables with high-and-low tops, elbow room throughout and a generous helping of TVs all form a great atmosphere for sports, and we were there to watch football after all.  I love my SEC so you can bet who I was rooting for, and I wasn't disappointed!
