Members of the executive board and some other core members have held discussions this week about the short term and long term options for a home bar for Crew Union. We had several bars reach out to us and we appreciate that support from the community.</p> <p>We visited Jimmy V's Wednesday evening, took a tour of the place and talked with the owner who had invited us out. The location is not far from Claddagh, the parking situation is a bit better as there is more non-metered street parking, the layout/tv situation is great and food/drink prices are cheaper. We're going to try to get people down there for the US World Cup matches and based on how people like it possibly make Jimmy V's our new Crew Union bar for the remainder of the 2010 Crew season </blockquote><br /> Jimmy V's will be open at 6:30 tomorrow morning for Germany-Serbia kicking off at 7:30.
