Monday Night Football at Grant’s Lounge
Sometimes you just really need to be around other fans who get it. The ones who understand why this game is so important, why that player trade was a great deal, why the new defense coordinator could change the whole team. Monday Night Football at Grant’s Lounge is a great place to be around other football-loving fans. On Monday, the Dallas Cowboys will take on the Los Angeles Chargers. Grant’s will have cold beer and wings available for purchase.
