I'm a college student in NYC, and I've been searching far and wide for four years to find a good Duke bar to watch them play, especially in the bigger games. If you ask me I can tell you countless other college-team bars, but I haven't come across a place where the whole place is pro-Duke. Any ideas or suggestions??

Here's the link.

There are also e-mail addresses for the coordinator Paula Berg and the president Michael Weiner available on the Duke web site.

You should be able to find a number of places where Duke fans gather. Moreover, the duke club is for friends of Duke as well as alumni, and I am sure they would welcome you.

Excuse... the coordinator appears to Erica Berg Gavin and her phone number is listed in various places.

Check out this site with the scheduled hoop watching locations:

It seems like the Duke Club of New York frequently meets at The Village Pourhouse located at 64 Third Avenue at 11th Street. And their website confirms their Duke status (although apparently its the home of Va Tech, UGA, Gtown, Kansas, AND Duke; seems like some conflict of interests.....):

The bar is called Tracy J's. (19th Street Manhatten) Blythe talks about it on pg 195 of his book btw.

There are 4 or 5 Brother Jimmy's locations in New York that are fun, Southern bars. Lots of people go to each of these to watch Duke games. Great food specials on Wednesday night, too.

there's a chance i'm going to be either in manhattan or morristown, nj for the duke @ virginia game the first week of march. if that happens, where is a good place to watch the game in either place outside of my hotel room? I've never been to heyman's restaurant, is that any good?

just looking for input from some of the yankee devils ;)
