OK, a thread about watching TdF in NYC gave me the idea to ask this.

On the hill, I've seen TdF at Johnny's Half Shell at 400 North Capitol Street.

Downtown at McCormick and Schmick's, 1652 K Street.

Where else?

Diner on 18th Street in Adams Morgan will be showing it live every morning.

Wouldn't you, like, have to be in France? Oh, you mean a live TV broadcast.

I sometimes do lunch at Grevey's in Merrifield. They have tables with individual tv sets and the staff will set it to any sports channel you want.

Just wait for the Giro to roll down the streets in DC.

I thought Kevin Grevey had a restaurant out in Lanham. Did he ever or am I crazy?

I remember going to the Capitol Center to watch the Bullets win the NBA Championships over Seattle in 1978. What a great event. When they won, women I didn't know were hugging and kissing me. I saw Mayor Fauntroy leaving the arena being kissed and hugged by all kinds of people. Not a VIP entrance, no big security detail, things were different then. I shook his hand and may have exclaimed "WOO HOO!".
