Hundreds of people on the Central Coast made their way to sports bars like Firestone Grill to watch the Super Bowl.
“Firestone Grill is a pretty special spot compared to a lot of other spots downtown,” Louis Sanchez, a bartender at Firestone Grill said. "We have a lot of good friends day in and day out."
Sanchez told me there is always some event to prepare for in the sports world.
“If it's not the Super Bowl, then it's the NBA playoffs, the world series going on,” Sanchez said.
Sunday was no exception.
“We definitely all put in a lot of work,” Sanchez said. “We’re never unprepared for anything that comes."
Crowds were quieter this year at some places like Rod and Hammer.
“It’s significantly different," Kris Cunningham, a Partner at Rod and Hammer said. "There were a lot more 49ers fans last year."
Bartenders say in general, Rod and Hammer seem to serve a different crowd.
