NFL Fans: Check Out These Scenes on Sunday, Or Not
The Steelers and Packers fans at a bar near you are looking for football, not dates.
Every other resturant in Brentwood has a sign about "great catering deals" for your Super Bowl party.
But what about those of us who want to head out to watch the game with other football fans?
Well, Brentwood has options for that too!

We also have advice for singles trying to turn Super Bowl Sunday into date night.
What's Brewing in Brentwood for Super Bowl Sunday:
(11648 San Vicente Blvd., 310-806-6464) is serving Happy Hour Specials all day.
The bar area has two televisions and the vibe of the place is low-key. Although the fans may get excited about the game, it's definitely going to be a bit more mature (read: older) crowd.

For those singles thinking about hitting the bars to meet people, I have two thoughts:
- It you are already a football fan, go for it! Watch the game intently and chit chat during the boring commercials.
- If not, I say choose another day: Football fans can spot an imposter a mile away. Besides, Super Bowl Sunday is a great day to hit the sales, go to a popular restaurant or run errands while the streets are deserted.
Whether you're in it for the football, commercials or post-show episode of Glee, Super Bowl Sunday is an event best enjoyed with others.
