If you don’t already know, Court Street is the place to be when it comes to finding a good deal on drinks. With a vast array of bars that line its brick streets, there’s always an event going on every night during the week, one that can save you from financial distress or that can end in a potential earth-shattering hangover the next day.
The Athens bar scene has all the answers for enjoying a night out during the week or on the weekend, so here is a list of this week’s events if you’re in need of a good time:
Lucky’s Sports Tavern
Mug Club Monday is perfect for any sports fans out there, serving mixed shots and draft beers for only $1.25. Attendees also can receive free hot dogs from Lucky’s staff, making it the ideal combination of alcohol and carbohydrates. In order to attend this, you must be a member, which costs $40, but being a part of the Mug Club comes with great benefits. Every day, members get $2 off doubles and 75 cents off draft beers.
Clearly, Lucky’s Sports Tavern has the best deals for those who have a passion for sports, as well as drinking.
