Big game hot spots in Las Vegas

Beer Park at Paris Las Vegas, which has an enviable outdoor location overlooking the Strip, celebrates college football with viewing parties every Saturday through the season. The sports bar features a Pigskin Pig Roast — a whole pig slow-roasted. Wash that down with one of 100 beers.

The list of TVs sounds like the inventory from an electronics store: about 30 high-def screens including a 200-incher. On Sunday evenings, the cantina hosts Football Fiesta with a $55 special that includes five beers and five shots of Espolo Blanco tequila. Info: lat.ms/cabowabo Lagasse’s Stadium at the Venetian boasts more than 100 TVs, including a 9-by-16foot main screen.

The Manly, named burger of the year by GQ magazine, is topped with house-made beer-cheddar sauce, bacon lardons (which many consider even better than bacon) and smokedsalt onion strings. You’ll find it at the SLS. Info: lat.ms/umamivegas Virgil’s Real Barbecue at the Linq Promenade blends its signature New York-style barbecue with game action.

By the way, it’s not too early to make reservations at your favorite Las Vegas hangout for the biggest game of the season. Super Bowl LII will be played Feb. 4 at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
