Which sport bar is best to go to for world cup soccer fun?  Any place near Mission Valley or Kearny Mesa?  Thanks.

Go to the Brit Pubs.  They have football schedules even when it isn't World Cup.  Shakespeare's in Mission Hill or Princess of Wales in Little Italy.  World Class beers and they can tell when or if a match will be televised.

Try Players on Clairemont Mesa.  Lots of TV's and they actually open very early for regulars wanting European soccer.  Also best satellite coverage in San Diego IMHO.

Try Shakespear's Pub on India Street near Washington.  A few freeway exits down the 5 from Mission Valley.

They have a website referencing the World Cup, plus it is a good place to get a Black and Tan along with some Fish and Chips.

I'd second that.  That place has so many TVs it isn't funny.  Plus, lap dances next door.

Instead of watching soccer, learn the language.
"I don't know who to ask" is proper grammer.
