Mapping where to watch the World Cup in Southern California
Updated Sept. 10
As the title of the post suggests, this map was created so Southern Californians knew which bars and restaurants showed World Cup games last summer. I'm in the process of updating the map to illustrate what local places are soccer-friendly for MLS, UEFA CL and other games. Stand by. Until then use the below map with caution because what applied during the World Cup may not apply now.

Tip: an alphabetical list of bars and restaurants pops up when you click on the link at the bottom of the map.
Finally, here's a list of more than 100 Galaxy-sponsored viewing parties not included in the map above.

Any places in the the inland empire?
This is great!!!
Stick and Stein in El Segundo opened early for the US-Slovenia game and was packed to capacity of Aerospace workers skipping out on work. I'm sure they will be open for the US-Algeria game too.
