Where to Watch the Jets-Patriots Game This Sunday — It’s Playoff Time!

New York enjoys its share of fan frenzy against Boston teams, and now the city faces yet another bitter New England rivalry with Sunday’s Jets vs. Patriots playoff game.

The question on every New Yorker’s mind is whether or not the Jets’ last defeat against New England foreshadows another crushing loss and, of course, where to root for the city’s underdog.  Here’s a list of some of Gang Green’s favorite gathering spots:




123 Burger Shot Beer - $3 and a ton of Jets’ love go a long way at this trendy Hell’s Kitchen establishment. You can’t go wrong with $1 sliders, $2 shots, and $3 beers all night long whether or not the Jets pull through. Need more of an incentive? Everyone in the bar receives a free beer if the Jets win – now that’s hometown spirit! www.123burgershotbeer.com, (212) 315-0123, 738 10th Avenue

Ocean’s 8 Sports Bar and Grill – Ocean’s 8 adds a whole new meaning to a NYC sports bar. With 30 big screen TVs, 30 pool tables, and 6 ping pong tables, this game lovers’ heaven has its own bowling alley and 24 beers on tap so you can play (and drown) away your nervous energy during the game.  www.oceans8atbrownstone.com, (718) 857-5555, 308 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn

Bull’s Head Tavern - Follow NYC’s own NY Jets Fans’ Meetup Group to this rustic Gramercy bar for some Gang Green bonding. Bull’s Head will be providing free wings, pizza, snacks, and possibly beer, exclusively for this group.  Twenty beers on tap, darts, pool tables, and perky bar-maids guarantee a good time win or lose. www.welovebars.com/bullsheadtavern, (212) 685-2589, 295 3rd Avenue

Overlook – Known as one of Midtown’s premier sports bars, Overlook is a Jets’ fans haven, offering drink specials all night including unlimited Bud Lights for $20. This classic bar offers an extensive food menu as well.  Go before the game to enjoy brunch, served until 4pm, and stay to “experience” the game, surrounded by giant TV screens and cartoon wall drawings by historically famous NYC artists. www.overlooknyc.com, (212) 682-7266, 225 East 44th Street

And on the off chance you’re a Patriots fan…
