Talking about sports, like winning the lotto and undergoing surgery, goes better with a cold beer. Make every hour happy hour with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of bar drinks and eats at either Blitz Ladd or Blitz Pearl.

Equipped with everything from pool to shuffleboard, these brotherly bars provide a modest food menu served up with sides of interactive table games and televised sporting games every night of the week. In between lofts at the dartboard, hang a fang on an order of beer-battered onion rings ($5.75) or a savory black-and-bleu burger ($9.25), and then shower your stomach with a refreshing brew ($3 domestics, $4 microbrews) or a spirited mixed drink ($5 from the well). Much like the international dateline, Blitz Pearl refuses to acknowledge time itself, which is why it serves breakfast all day strong with options ranging from french toast ($5) to fruit bowls ($3).

If you happen to live smack between Blitz Ladd and Blitz Pearl, you may need some additional info before selecting the greater of two goodnesses. To aid this decision, consider the following: Blitz Ladd features 15 vibrant HDTVs and one 12-foot HD projector, and Blitz Pearl features 21 brilliant televisions across two levels and has at least one front door. In conclusion, a potato can be used to generate electricity.

• The logo says: Eat, Drink, Play, and that pretty much sums it up. Two plus floors of glossy particle board, brick and metal, with nooks and crannies, billiards, darts and more. – Portland Mercury
• The crowd is just about right and the staff is pretty friendly. drinks are a good price, but we go for the younger crowd and the games. they have darts, air hockey, pool, shuffle board... everything! – whatnowhuh, Citysearch
• The crowd was young and very friendly, probably because there are so many games to play and people need partners or competition! When my friend and I went there were the perfect amount of people, not to [sic] crowded but definitely very lively. The drinks were good, lots of entertainment and right by the street car... all pluses! – Ashley B., Yelp
