Illini Downeast

[DrakeChristensen]

I'm planning on attending the Maine Boatbuilders Show in a couple of weeks. I've never been to Portland (or Maine) before. That weekend is also the opening of the NCAA tournament and I'd like to find a good place to watch my alma mater (University of Illinois Fighting Illini) see if they can't finish out this storybook season in style. In the off chance there will be other Illini there as well, first round is on me. Any suggestions on where to catch the games?

The first two sports bars that come to mind are Bleachers on Forrest Ave. (behind Pier One) by USM and Asylum downtown by the Civic Center. I hope you can come over here, too. I usually have people over either Friday or Saturday night for a little elbow bending. Check back for more details the week before the show.
