Hit a Bar Early for the Tournament

The two most glorious days of the basketball year are almost here.

The opening Thursday and Friday of the NCAA Tournament always feature 16 games apiece, beginning in the early afternoon.

For those full-time parents who occasionally enjoy a couple free hours while the kids are at school, the early games can be a real treat. They start at 12:15 p.m. both days.

And if you care to make it a true by leaving the house and watch with other hoops fans, we know some places you can go.

• in Bala Cynwyd opens at 11 a.m.
• in Narberth also opens at 11.
• Same with in Narberth.
• in Bala Cynwyd opens at 11:30 a.m.
• So does in Bala Cynwyd ...
• ... and in Narberth ...
• ... and in exactly where it says.

Enjoy!
