Best Sports Bars in Jacksonville and St. Augustine FL

The Super Bowl matchup is set. Once again, the New England Patriots have made the championship round; but will they win a sixth title in less than 20 seasons, or lose to the up-and-coming Los Angeles Rams? In this rematch of the Super Bowl that started the Pats’ dynasty 17 years ago when they beat the Rams 20-17 (in 2002), the storylines are tantalizing, and the level of football promises to be high.

So where are you going to watch the big game? There’s plenty of great options in the St. Augustine and Jacksonville FL area, but we have a roster of four of the best local sports bars in the area that would be worthy place to see quarterback Tom Brady and the Patriots take on the Rams team led by coach Sean McVay. Read on for our four-pack of sports pub picks!

Possibilities and Preview Commercial for 2019 Kia Super Bowl Ad

Kia Super Bowl commercials are known for making a splash, whether it’s from the celebrities who appear with a new vehicle or with the bold, fun message they carry. This year, we can probably expect something different during the Kia Super Bowl ad campaign.  

While during recent Super Bowl broadcasts we’ve enjoyed seeing a hilarious ad from actor Christopher Walken with the Kia Optima, an award-winning ad that featured comedy star Melissa McCarthy with the new Kia Niro, as well as a high-octane spot with rock star Steven Tyler and the Kia Stinger, this year looks to be different. Read on to see the focus of the new 2019 Kia Super Bowl ad, plus you can check out a video preview of the commercial and its worthy goal.

Which snacks shouldn’t you bring on a road trip? 

While many drivers have rules against eating in the car, those strictures often go out the window during a road trip. The most efficient and effective way to keep everyone in the car happy is to provide a variety of snacks. While some might want to eat exclusively junk food on the trip, while others will want something with a little more nutritional value, the owner of the vehicle being used probably just want to make sure that their car remains in more or less the same condition it was in when they left. Here are some of the best and least messy foods to bring on a road trip.   Read the rest of this entry >>
