Has anyone heard if Kellys is having "FAC" again this year? Last year they had a guy playing covers and had Mug specials from 3-5? It reminded me of Peoples on a friday afternoon. The place was packed with Cyclone fans.
 
Just talked to them $2 domestic pints and band or guy playing for happy hr. Info on that was on earlier thread. Expected big crowd Fri. afternoon as they are promoting it as halfway to St. Patty's party.
 
Looking to hit Kelly's post-game Saturday. None of us have ever been.

If you or anybody else one here makes it, please post your impression. When ISU used to really show up for the Big 8/12 hoops tournament, I swear there was nothing more fun as a Cyclone fan than Kelly's. Just freakin' wall to wall with Cyclone fans swilling 44 ouncers by the stack.

Now, with the P&L District being the place to be, I'm hearing that Kelly's is playing 2nd fiddle.

Yeah Brian Congden (Played a lot of FAC's at people's) is playing from 3-6 at kelly's. The KC alumni association was promoting last weekend at the game watch. Then everyone can still make it to the spirit rally at P&L that starts at 5 with a brief program that starts at 7.

Kelly's is just Kelly's and it will be packed with Cyclone fans. Does it matter what the specials are? The only special I remember is being packed in like a sardine, sweating my balls off, going deaf from the noise and waiting forever and a day to get served. And I loved it. Who gives a flying fondue what the specials are.......IT'S KELLY'S!!!!!

I think this pretty much captures it.

Westport has really gone downhill in recent years with the revival of the downtown.

Nah, they relaxed the dress code at P&L and the trouble has started to migrate there and away from Westport. Also, P&L on weekends can get a little douchy too. Westport is still fun.

I have to admit I don't feel as safe as I used to down around Westport. But maybe it's because I am older and can't run as fast. The walk to the car if you have to park a block or three away from the action is a little scary.
 
God, I'd give my left nut to hit that FAC at Kelly's. Sounds like a Friday in college. Does Kelly's have a ****** basement where I can get $.25 Mich Goldens and **** in the sink? Too bad one of our party can't get off work till 4:30 in Des Moines.

Wow. I'm going to see if he can fake an illness. That's too sweet to pass up.
 
I went to Westport for the last K-State game and walked by a bunch of cops and an ambulance. I grabbed the paper the next morning to find out 2 people got stabbed. I know stuff like that can happen everywhere, but Westport has definitely gone downhill.

Well at least they didn't have beer cans thrown at them.

Had a blast there on Friday night last year for the KSU game. Good band, ISU fans, and some hot chicks brought around shots of tequila at midnight for a promotion. It got a liitle fuzzy after that.

No doubt. Any location like P&L in any large city is the same way. I'm hoping I'll see lots of Clones out and about at P&L. Won't be hitting Kelly's this time.
