Seaus of San Diego   

Though All-Pro linebacker Junior Seau was traded to the Miami Dolphins in the spring of 2003, at his Mission Valley bar and restaurant visitors can travel back in time to the days when Junior was the embodiment of the Bolts. This huge space has several levels and super-high ceilings, which can make for a noisy dining experience. But most folks come as much for the raucous ambiance as the food. Sixty TV monitors provide just about every spot in the joint with a vantage point of the action, and a huge projection screen assures you won't miss a detail. Naturally, during football games the place is amped, with fans voicing their approval or lack thereof. As an added bonus, Seau himself frequently pops in when in town, hanging out and letting the people see that being a Dolphin hasn't changed his love for San Diego. TV and radio personalities are frequently spotted as well, making people-watching a more interesting pastime during commercials. Find happy hour drink and food specials, ample beers on tap and friendly, efficient staff.
