Ready For Football? Here Are 9 Great Bangor ‘Sunday Funday’ Hangs

Hey Bangor, are you ready for some football?

As summer winds down, one positive thing to come out of it, is the return of the NFL.

If you are a New England Patriots fan, once again, things aren't looking that great for the upcoming season, but never give up hope!

This Thursday night, September 5th, the defending champion, Kansas City Chiefs, will take on the Baltimore Ravens, to kick off the 2024-2025 season.

Although most people like to spend the afternoon and evening on the couch watching games, there is a rabid base of fans (myself included) who love the social phenomenon known as "Sunday Funday", which is the idea that you head to your favorite watering hole with some friends, and catch all the action there, instead of staying home.

The cool part is that all of these businesses feature multiple television sets, so if you have a particular team you root for, they are more than happy to accommodate you.

Many of these places will also feature weekly food & drink specials too!
