Game watch in oc?

Looking for a great place to watch the game on Sunday in the OC. Doesn't have to be an 'official' game watch...just somewhere that might have a big screen. ANY IDEAS??

I'm not sure if you are familiar with Danny K's in Orange but it's one of my favorite sports bars. HUGE big screens and probably over 50 pretty big HD screens. Like 30 pool tables, darts, foosball, other bar games, waitstaff thats usually pretty easy on the eyes, really good bar food, and over 50 beers on tap. The audio will certainly be on in at least one area of the bar (the place is huge).

I'd be going there on Sunday if I wasn't going to Staples Freaking Center!

Great minds think alike, was thinking of the same place.

Haha! It's really close to Honda Center so it really is more of a Ducks place but I know the staff there and the manager has love for the Kings so it's a cool place to check out a game.

Funny story, I actually met former GM Bryan Murray there. The place was empty on a weekday afternoon and he sat and talked hockey with me for over an hour. Even though he knew I was a die hard Kings fan he was a really nice guy. He was shocked that I even recognized him. I remember telling him, "Well Ducks fans sure aren't going to recognize you". He didn't think it was funny. He asked me, halfheartedly, what it would take to bring me over to the Ducks fanbase. I told him that I didn't care if the Ducks won 10 cups in a row, it'll simply never happen.

He left the franchise to persue the Ottawa job shortly after that day.

Good story...I met Hayward at Wise Guys pizza in Orange...I told him he was actually a decent color-commentator...when he wasn't doing Duck games. True story...

I called Danny K's...they said they would put the game up on the big screen with audio....is this big screen they have in HD??

I know they have a few different big screens in the place. Some are the projection kind and some aren't. I can't recall for sure but I know there are TONS of 30-46 inch HD tv's covering the entire place. You'll have no problem seeing everything.

Long story short, I'm not 100 percent but I think the answer is yes.

We have been watching in Lake Forest at a place called Cabo Cantina. It's on Lake Forest Dr/ Dimension.

There are about 50 Kings fans going there for each game now, the owners are Kings fans and if this isn't one of the most awesome things you ever saw, then you suck

Stupid questions:
1) Are the projections screens in HD?
2) Do they turn the volume up for the game?
