Did you know that the inspiration for the world’s first pub dates all the way back to 43 CE?

While pubs have come a long way since then, the sentiment has always been the same. Pubs are supposed to be fun places where you can gather with nice people and share amazing food and drinks.

At Bout Time, we have all kinds of pub food that will rock your world. Read on if you’d like to learn about five Bout Time favorites so you can figure out what to order during your next visit.

1. Jalapeño Poppers

Jalapeño poppers always hit the spot since they check off so many yummy flavor profiles. The pepper’s heat and the cream cheese’s richness will keep you reaching for more.

For extra decadence, we wrap our jalapeño poppers in bacon. This appetizer is the best way to fire up your appetite for more incredible dishes.

2. Irish Nachos

Nachos are a staple pub food, and you’ll love how we create ours. You can order traditional nachos with tortilla chips at our pub, but adventurous eaters like to try our Irish twist that uses sliced potatoes.

After our potatoes are fried to perfection, they’re topped with cheese, bacon, sour cream, and parsley.

3. Pacifico Beer

There’s nothing more refreshing than a tall glass of cold craft beer. At Bout Time Pub, you can find all kinds of delicious beer to quench your thirst. Pacifico beer is one of our customers’ favorites.

Make some plans to meet up with a bunch of your friends, and you can toast to all of the good times you’ve had and all that are coming.

4. B.A.B.B. Burger

No visit to a pub would be complete without sinking your teeth into a juicy burger. Once you try our B.A.B.B. burger, you’ll crave it all the time.

Our ground chuck patties are topped with gooey American cheese, sliced ham, corned beef hash, sliced bacon, and even a fried egg. Our soft burger buns are then smothered in savory garlic mayo to complete the gourmet experience.

5. Firecracker Shrimp

If you’re a seafood fan, then you haven’t lived until you try our addicting firecracker shrimp. We fry our shrimp until they’re nice and crunchy.

Once they’re fresh out of the fryer, we toss them in a creamy sauce that’s got a kick. If you need to cool off your taste buds, you can dip them in ranch or add some tang with a lime wedge.

It is Super Bowl LVII this year, or in layman’s terms – the 57th Super Bowl. And although we do not know who is playing yet, what we do know is when we will all be sitting around, stuffing our faces, screaming at the TV, and having the times of our lives.

Are you ready for the Super Bowl? Here’s the Super Bowl preview that you need for 2023, as it is right around the corner.

When Is the Super Bowl?

The Super Bowl will be on Saturday, February 12, 2023. The time of the game is 6:30 pm ET.

Where Is the Super Bowl?

The Super Bowl will be in Arizona this year. It will take place at the State Farm Stadium, which is home to the Arizona Cardinals. 63,000 people can fit in the stadium.

Who Is Headlining at the Halftime Show?

The Halftime show at the Super Bowl is why half the people watch (not to mention the fun and hilarious commercials that often play as well).

In 2023, you can expect an outstanding halftime show with Rhianna as the headliner.

She last released an album in 2016 and had a child this year in May. She’ll be back up on stage and better than ever in just a few short months!

Who Could Be Playing in the Super Bowl?

Although there are no set teams playing in the Super Bowl this year, there are some teams that look to be doing really well. They have a chance to make it to the Super Bowl.

So who are these teams?

• Tampa Bay Buccaneers
• Philadelphia Eagles
• Baltimore Ravens
• Kansas City Chiefs
• Buffalo Bills
• Tennessee Titans
• Minnesota Vikings
• San Francisco 49ers

These teams were all top of the line as predictions for the Super Bowl as they are all playing at their best this season. However, you truly never know until it comes down to it.

National Sandwich Day occurs on November 3rd this year and celebrates a delicious and convenient food that has become ingrained in our culture. Despite the sandwich’s modern-day popularity, though, we will probably never know who invented it. 

The earliest recorded sandwiches date back to Jewish culture over 2000 years ago. What we do know is that sandwiches were named after John Montagu, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, who popularized the idea sometime between the late 1600s and 1700s.

These days, there are many types of sandwiches, so everyone can find a sandwich they like. We’ll discuss some of the offerings at the Bout Time Pub and Grub Sandwich shop in this article.

The Reuben

Much like the sandwich in general, the origins of the Reuben are unclear. At least two people claimed to have invented the iconic combination of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing on rye bread.

One of them is Reuben Kulakofsky, a Nebraska grocer who invented the sandwich to feed his friends during card games. One of Reuben’s poker buddies owned a hotel and loved the sandwich so much that he began selling it to his guests. The other claimant, Arnold Reuben, was a restaurateur in New York who served something similar to a Reuben.

Kulakofsky and Reuben may have been some of the first people to serve Reuben sandwiches, but they’re far from the only ones. You can also find Reuben sandwiches on our menu at Bout Time Pub and Grub sandwich shop. Trust us when we say you won’t be disappointed.

Philly Cheesesteak

This sandwich was invented in its namesake city of Philadelphia. The basic ingredients for a cheesesteak are slices of steak, cheese, and bread. In some variations, including ours, add onions and peppers.

The Philly Cheesesteak has a fascinating history, with some claiming that the original Cheesesteak sandwich was just a steak sandwich. The cheese wasn’t added until later. Another fascinating episode happened in the 1930s when one Cheesesteak mogul started a rumor that he was using horse meat rather than beef and dared people to prove the rumor true.

Shrimp Po’Boy

The next classic sandwich on our list was born half a nation away from Philadelphia, in the city of New Orleans, Louisiana. A shrimp po’boy is the quintessential Louisiana dish, combining French influence with seafood offerings from right off the coast, and the splash of heat that Cajun food is known for.

It uses French bread and a French remoulade sauce drizzled over fried shrimp, lettuce, tomatoes, sliced pickles, and, in some cases, hot sauce.

Our own version of the shrimp po’boy ditches the pickles and hot sauce and puts it all on a hoagie roll. A few small changes, but they don’t take away from the flavor.

What and Where to Eat on National Sandwich Day

With National Sandwich Day approaching, it’s important to talk about the sandwiches that helped define America’s food culture. We’ve talked about a few of these sandwiches here, but there are many more.

You can learn more at our site or by dropping by our restaurant. We have several locations in Colorado and Utah.

The FIFA World Cup has long been hailed as the pinnacle of world soccer. But, for any child playing the magical sport, the ultimate dream is to put on your country’s colors and play in front of millions watching. 

With that said, the World Cup is rich in history, and with every edition comes surprises that shock the world. Read on below to learn about five interesting FIFA World Cup facts that you probably didn’t know!

FIFA World Cup’s Most Successful Teams

Most people know Brazil has won the world cup a record five times in their history. However, few people know is that only eight countries have won the world cup. Such is the tournament’s difficulty that only Germany, Brazil, England, Argentina, Spain, Uruguay, Italy, and France have managed to conquer the world. 

Oldest Player to Score in a World Cup

Cameroonian player Roger Miller has the record of being the oldest player to ever score a FIFA World Cup goal. Against Russia in the 1994 edition, Roger Miller became the oldest scorer at the ripe old age of 42 years old. 

Most Goals by One Player in a Match

In the same match that Roger Miller scored his record goal, Cameroon lost the game 6-1. Russian striker Salenko having bagged 5 of those goals for himself, which is still a record that has yet to be beaten. 

Highest Scoring Defeat

Unfortunately, sometimes things don’t go so well for some teams at the tournament. El Salvador has the most unwanted record of being the team to suffer the highest-scoring defeat at the World Cup. They were thrashed 10-1 by Hungary in the group stages of the tournament. 

Funny enough, Hungary could not progress past the group stage. El Salvador, as expected, didn’t go on to win any games. 

The Success of the Home Team

There is something to be said for home team advantage. Playing on home soil, with thousands of spectators cheering for you, provides the home team with a significant advantage. This can be seen in the record books, with home teams doing surprisingly well over the years. 

Barring South Africa in 2010, every home team has gone on to the last 16 of the tournament, while a host nation has won the tournament six times. The countries that overcame the pressure were Uruguay in 1930, Italy in 1934, England in 1966, West Germany in 1974, Argentina in 1978, and most recently, France in 1998. 

A Fairy-Tale Tournament

For many nations vying to win the tournament, the FIFA World Cup is not only a competition to see who is the best at that moment but is a tournament where dreams are made and lost. However, who knows what the future holds and who might get to carve their names into the history books?

3. Jumbo Soft Pretzel

Jumbo soft pretzels have always been one of the most popular appetizers at sports bars. They’re simple, but they always hit the spot when you pair them with a cold beer.

Sports bars aren’t all beer and shots! Well, at least ours isn’t. We made our drink menu to cater to everyone who walks through our door, including sports fanatics and their family/friends. 

But don’t take it from us! Instead, read up on the Bout Time Pub and Grub Cocktails that we make most often below. 

1. Moscow Mule 

You either love a Moscow Mule, or you hate it. There aren’t many people who are in between on this copper-mug classic. You may not know that this drink is what brought Vodka to popularity in the US, as opposed to eastern Europe, where it gets its name. 

A classic mule contains vodka, ginger beer, ice, and lime. Our classic mule is still one of the most popular choices at Bout Time, but we like to give people options. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can make it fruity with peach vodka (A Peach Mule) or make it all-American with Jack Daniels’ instead of vodka.

Feeling even spicier? Make it a Tennesee Fire Mule with Jack Daniel’s version of cinnamon whiskey. The combination of the cinnamon and the ginger beer makes this a fun, warm, and comforting cocktail. 

Or better yet, make it a goal to try them all as a devout Pub and Grub patron! 

2. Grape Lime Rickey 

Some drinks get their names from where they’re from (see above), while others get their names from what’s in them, like our house favorite Grape Lime Rickey. This cocktail is both sweet and sour, making it the perfect thing to take the edge off of a long day. 

It’s fruity without being girly and one of our most-ordered drinks. Our Rickey’s include Three Olives Grape flavored vodka, gape pucker, lemon-lime soda, and freshly-squeezed lime juice. 

If you loved grape soda as a kid, you’ll love this version all-dressed up in a cocktail glass. Pairs perfectly with a jumbo soft pretzel. 

3. Dragon’s Nectar 

Looking for something that is a vacation in a cup? Dragon’s Nectar will make you feel like you’re at the beach and give you a kick to get through those late-night games with a splash of Red Bull. 

Think of it as a grown-up fruit punch meets a Red Bull and vodka. It’s the perfect drink to start the evening when you’re in for a long match or want to hold out all night for a late-night fight. 

Careful though, this drink is so good, it goes down fast! 

4. Bout Time Freshest Margarita

Looking for something that’s not going to push you over your calories for the day but is more exciting than a vodka soda? Our house margarita is made “skinny” with El Jimador Silver, Cointreau, freshly squeezed lime juice, and agave nectar for the perfect sweetness. 

Paired with our Queso or Stuffed Jalapenos, it’s perfection.

When it comes to sports trivia, it’s hard to beat baseball. And there’s no event in baseball that fans love to talk about more than the World Series. Here we take a look at 6 World Series trivia facts that only the biggest baseball fans will know. So stick around and test your knowledge of the history of the World Series to see how you stack up against your family and friends! 

1. Who are the Current World Champions?

Millions of people watch the World Series every single year, but that doesn’t mean they remember what team won the most recent series. In this case, the reigning 2021 World Champions happen to be the Atlanta Braves from Atlanta, Georgia.

2. Who Holds the Record for Most Championships?

Do you know which MLB team holds the record for the most World Championships? Even a new baseball fan should be able to guess the name of this team without much trouble. But for those who need a little help, the answer is: The New York Yankees.

Believe it or not, the Yankees have appeared in 40 championship series, winning an astounding 27 times.

3. How Many Teams Have Won the World Series?

Now let’s look at how many teams have won the World Series.

Drumroll, please: a total of 117 World Series have been played, with the AL winning 66 and the NL winning 51. This statistic includes the current champs, the Atlanta Braves.

4. What Pitcher Has the Most Strikeouts in a Single Game?

Here’s the toughest trivia question so far: what pitcher holds the record for the most strikeouts in the World Series, and what year did he achieve it? The answer: Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals struck out 17 Detroit Tigers on October 2nd, 1968.

That means his record has now stood for 54 years.

5. What was the First World Series Ever Played?

The answer to our next trivia question is perhaps the least-known among baseball facts. The first World Series game was played on December 28, 1902. But it wasn’t a baseball game. It was actually a professional football game.

Did you know that almost 900 thousand people watched Wimbledon on average in 2019? The tennis championship is popular for people to view on television or even in person.

Have you ever wanted to learn more about Wimbledon history and other details? Here are some Wimbledon facts that will give you a great introduction to the prestigious sports competition.

1. It’s The World’s Oldest Tennis Tournament

The first Wimbledon tournament occurred in 1877, meaning the competition is almost 150 years old. However, unlike today’s professionals, the 21 tennis players were amateurs.

The All England Lawn Club was founded less than a decade before for croquet. The entrance fee was one pound and one shilling.

2. Wimbledon Uses Grass Courts

When you go to play tennis, you may think of clay or blacktop courts. However, one of the most unique Wimbledon facts is that the courts are made of grass.

On a grass court, the tennis ball is much more likely to have a consistent bounce. However, the ball has less bounce due to the softer material and also goes lower.

Wimbledon stands out from other competitions because it encourages volleying with the grass courts, making the game more engaging for viewers.

3. The Competition is Two Weeks Long

Rather than a single-day event, Wimbledon takes place in a series of games over two weeks. These include men’s and women’s singles and doubles categories as well.

Many people visit local bars and pubs with their friends for drinks and delicious food during their favorite matches. But, by far, the most popular games to view are the championship rounds.

4. Centre Court is the Most Popular

Of course, any court at any tournament gets attention. For Wimbledon, the Center Court is your best bet if you want to see the most action and fanfare.

The top events occur in the Centre Court, including the finals for every category. However, tickets for the Centre Court also have the highest price tag.

5. A Substantial Cash Reward for Winners

One of the biggest draws of Wimbledon is, no doubt, the cash prize. The winner will bank two million pounds in prize money for the championship.

Even if you are a finalist, you can expect to make about half that for making it to the final round.

Think About These Wimbledon Facts

If you want to attend Wimbledon, you should know about these key Wimbledon facts before you go to the tournament. With your knowledge of Wimbledon history, you can have an even more educated viewpoint on all things related to the famous tennis competition.
