Sept. 19: Should I order the PPV or go to the movie theaters to watch?

[DrewWoodside]

I have about 3-4 friends that are watching the fight with me and we can't decide if we want to order the Mayweather-Marquez PPV or go to the movie theaters to watch it. This would be a no brainer (order the PPV) normally, but the theater I would go to watch it has a full bar in the theater.

Decisions, decisions.

What should I do?

Go to a bar, I don't know if you live in the NYC area but.. Jack Dempseys on 33rd and 5th will be showing it for a $20 entry fee. I'm gonna post that info as a thread later. People on here are always asking what bars are showing the fight.

Go to the cinema and watch it, watching at home would be boring in comparison.

Unless ofcourse you have cinema seats at your house, then its a no brainer.

theaters. when is the next time you can do that? bring a girl because Mayweather and Marquez might be a bore.

I live in Connecticut but not near NYC. Bars here only show UFC fights for the most part.

This is tough because I'm interested to see what it would be like in a theater, but I'm still leaning towards ordering it. With the amount of drinking I normally do on big fight nights, fiscally it makes more sense to be at home.

I'm really torn on this though because the theater I would go to has a full bar and I'm really interested to see what it would be like on the big screen.

If you have 10 friends, just order the PPV. The tickets are $18 each. Between 10 of you thats $200...the PPV is $60

Even if it were $10 to get in you're still spending $100 between 10 of you.

Actually my theater said it's $12.50 each. That's why it's a tough call. Isn't the PPV $50?

If I wasn't going out of town for a friends birthday I would go to the theaters for sure. How much is a ticket going to be anyway? Definitely not 50 dollars.

What I would do is get a few of those shot bottles and put them in my back pocket then buy a coke and get my drink on. It'd be interesting to see what kind of crowd goes. I don't know any big boxing fans. I'm assuming the theater will be full of mexicans.

I'm pretty pissed I have to miss it. This happens every time there's a big fight. I swear it's JMM too. I went away the weekend of his fight with Casa, Diaz, and now Mayweather. And it was all the same group of friends.

12.50 is a steal for a PPV man. Ahhhhh I hope they continue to do this. Consider the fact that it's in a theater. Huge screen in HD.
