NCAA Basketball in Paris

Hi all, I%26#39;m heading out on Thursday to Paris for 2 weeks. Do any of you know of a place that would be showing some NCAA basketball? Thought I might pop in at some point to find out what%26#39;s going on, watch the Vols, maybe, and have a beer. Thanks!

GREAT QUESTION!!! I%26#39;ll be there too that first weekend of March Madness, and if my TERPS get in, i gotta have a place to watch!!!

Just found this from KDKSAIL:





There are lots of cafés, and pubs---a few approaching US %26#39;..sports bars..%26#39;--in Paris...and basketball is a popular sport throughout Europe.











Places that I know of that will almost certainly be showing the NCAA tournament on TV will be--











KITTY O%26#39;SHEA%26#39;S PUB--10 r Capucines, 75002, Metro: Madelaine, Tuileris, Opéra (convenient to the Blvd. %26#39;..grand magazins..%26#39;)--

The MOOSE--16 rue des Quatre Vents, 75006. Metro: Odéon %26amp; Mabillon--...AND---







The BEAVER--19 rue des Deux Ponts, 75004, Metro: Pont Marie

CORCORAN%26#39;S IRISH PUB--28 rue Saint t André des Arts, 75006, Metro: Saint Michel--

And these%26#39;d make pretty good lists to begin looking for big-screen-TV broadcast of %26#39;March Madness%26#39; in Paris--

Irish bars will be a good bet, most of them carry the TV station Setanta Sports, this is where you can find the NCAA tourney

Last March we caught the NCAA tournaments at the Moose Bar and it was a great spot.
