The weekend is sleeping in a tauntaun tonight.
Your Super Bowl party is about to enter the realm of legend, thanks to: 1) 25% off gold-accented bar carts fit for a czar—and your top-shelf liquor. 2) Hand-cured prosciutto delivery (note: goes great with beer). 3) A heap of bacon-filled brownies and cookies. Think of them as party favors.
No need to state the obvious here, but we’ll do it anyway: it’s stupid cold out. So you’ll want to take advantage of the fact that you can land up to 75% off Nau’s down scarves, office-ready warm wear and Siberia-worthy puffy jackets using up-cycled coconut-stuff for insulation. Coconuts = warm.
Enough cold stuff, let’s talk Australia (by way of Eastie). In honor of Australia Week, Aussie meat pie haven KO is offering up AC/DC trivia, special Down Under fare (think: a bucket of prawns), TV cricket matches and live crab races, starting today. That’s right. Live. Crab. Races. What’s up.
We can see your thoughts. And we see chicken. Could be due to the $25 all-you-can-eat wing-off at Game On tomorrow. Local wing czars from spots like Cornwall’s Pub and Dillon’s will present their wares for you to devour and vote on, alongside former Patriots player Joe Andruzzi. NFL vets know their wings.
If your Michael Palin impression has gotten rusty, know that the Brattle Theatre’s Monty Python week kicks off tomorrow with a new documentary on the genius of founding member Graham Chapman (RIP), followed by classics like Holy Grail and The Meaning of Life through the week. Sick days, here you come.
Okay, back to how to endure the cold: Church’s second annual chili fest is happening on Saturday. Your mission: take down endless cups of the stuff that seven Boston chili barons have concocted (Fenway Park, Sweet Cheeks, Jerry Remy’s) and vote on the winner. Tip: not first-date material. Or maybe it is.
