Olympic Hockey: Team USA vs. Team Canada
On the final day of the 2010 Winter Olympics, the last big event is the men's hockey, where Team USA faces Team Canada for the gold medal today at 3pm.
Here are some places to watch in New York City...
Bar Coastal Goes Canadian
Bar Coastal always had a west coast vibe, so having the Olympics in Vancouver was right up their ally. They "went Canadian" for two weeks with specials on Molson and Moosehead beer during the entire Winter Olympics. But they are a true American bar, so for today's big game, they add Budweiser to the mix:
$2 pints of Bud & Bud light in addition to
$3 Molson Drafts and $3 Moosehead Bottles
while showing the USA vs. Canada gold medal game.
