Go Dolph-- er, Packers!

Let's forget the Dolphins game this Sunday for a moment. At the same time as the Fins take on the Buffalo Bills, there will be a Green Bay Packers game on, and we are opportunists. And at Slackers Bar & Grill, there are Cheesehead specialties. The owner is from Wisconsin...

Let's forget the Dolphins game this Sunday for a moment. At the same time as the Fins take on the Buffalo Bills, there will be a Green Bay Packers game on, and we are opportunists. And at Slackers Bar & Grill, there are Cheesehead specialties. The owner is from Wisconsin. So, here at 1 p.m., you can get bloody marys with beer chasers, Leinenkugel's, Wisconsin Old Fashioneds and Manhattans, deep-fried cheese curds, and beer brats -- while the Packers take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home at Lambeau Field. Seriously, if that flier holds true, you're really going to be able to order only beer brats during this game (which once again is at the same time as the Dolphins'). Slackers says it for itself: It shows every game -- the only place you won't see a television is on the floor. Football specials for all games are $10 for five domestics and $15 for five imports. Besides all the TVs, Slackers (995 State Road 84, Fort Lauderdale) also has darts, pool, a high ceiling, and X-box. Visit slackersbarandgrill.com for more info on grub or ambiance.
