As a former ATLien, I may be the only person in the Berkeleyside office to care about the outcome of Sunday’s Super Bowl — go Falcons! — but that doesn’t mean everyone else won’t be watching. And even if you have no plans to actually pay attention, just about any Super Bowl event is sure to go all out with food and drink. Many East Bay bars and restaurants are doing just that. Here’s what’s on the docket for Sunday afternoon (in alphabetical order):
ALAMAR In Uptown, alaMar will show the Super Bowl on its 150-inch big screen, and it will offer 50-cent wing specials with $3 beers to drink from noon to 8 p.m. Chef Nelson German will also have some appetizers and seafood items up his sleeve. Free admission with first-come, first-serve seating.
