I can't remember the EXACT details of the year or game, but this is what I'm recalling right now...
Back in 2004, some friends and I hit up Mike's shortly before closing in order to get some take-out pizza so we could watch a late Red Sox playoff game at my friend's house (they must have been on the West Coast). The Yankees were playing in the early game and the game was not in doubt but was still in the 8th inning when the Red Sox game started. The employees at Mike's refused to change the channel to the just-begun Red Sox game because they feared it would draw a crowd. As we waited for our pizza, the doors were locked and we asked nicely again. No.
We haven't returned since. To be honest, I haven't missed the mediocre-at-best food one bit. There really aren't ANY good places in Davis to watch a game, unfortunately.
