Default Redskins football

Hi, I'm from the Washington DC area and will be moving to West Des Moines this fall. Are there any local sports bars that show my beloved Washington Redskins?

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

You could try Champs out at Jordan Creek. They play football, but I'm not sure what team. They play the Hawkeyes I know that.

You're going to have a tough time finding a true "Redskins fan bar" in the Des Moines area. There are so many sports bars that have those all NFL network packages, you're sure to find it available somewhere. The trick may be getting the channel changed in a room full of Packers, Bears, Vikings and Chiefs fans. I'm sure you can find a cozy sports bar that would accomodate you, just don't be expecting the rest of the crowd to go nuts when the Redskins score the touchdown.

Default Re: being a Redskin fan from the Washington DC area

I to am from the DC area (Burke, VA to be exact). I live in Urbandale. If you see a silver Toyota Sequoia decked out with Redskins stuff, say Hello.
I have not been able to find a bar that shows the games. I may wind up subscribing to the direct tv package this year since they have lowered the price. I am still in search of internet sites that will show the game. Once I find one, I will let you know. -Phil

^^ appears the upper midwest is not overly Redskin's friendly. Nothin' in Iowa, Minnesota, or Missouri.
