When we say sports bar, you think bar peanuts, beer-sticky floors, and paunchy fans shouting chants, right? Sure, unless you’ve just come from the Pier’s high-tech take on the old gig, Game On!, which opts for a different recipe: 90-plus TVs broadcasting up to 11 different games at once; a massive 100-foot bar built to be danced on; a movie-theater worthy, $750,000 sound system; young, scantily clad waitresses; 20-plus beer varieties; private “skyboxes” that can be reserved for groups; tailgating fare kicked up a notch, like Memphis-style baby-back ribs and “Coney Island” foot-longs topped with chili and cheddar; and — the cherry on the sundae — a mechanical bull. In short, this way-loud lair is a guy's ultimate playground — a must-stop for A.C. man-cations and bachelor parties. At night, the ladies have figured out that this is where the boys hang, and the “Eat, Drink, Score” motto seems, well, apt, as the bar-cum-nightclub endures into the wee hours.
