Watch College Football At These New Orleans Bars
Jockey’s Pub & Sports Bar
841 Gentilly Blvd, New Orleans, LA 70119 | (504) 309-9727
Here’s what one bar fan says about Jockey’s: “I have been to this place twice, once to see LSU beat Bama and last Sunday for the Saints/Carolina game. Both times I had a great experience. The volume for the games was very good so all could hear. The service was great and the folks there were amazing. I struck up some great conversation. I though by myself, had an awesome time on both occasions. Highly recommend.”
J&J’s Sports Lounge
800 France St, New Orleans, LA 70117 | (504) 942-8877
Here’s what one bar fan says about J&J’s: “Game days look and feel different now, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a cold beverage, in a great bar! Tables are spaced out, there is no standing at the bar and there is plenty of hand sanitizer on site. Each time your Saints score, you can hear the cowbells!”
