Canberra nightlife

[choc_soldier]

Hey peoples, I am coming down to Canberra with some friends for the weekend for the Panthers game in a couple of weeks. I think we will be staying in Dickson, which I believe is a stone's throw from the city.

Having not been to Canberra for a while (apart from a flying visit for the game last year), I have forgotten what kind of entertainment (i.e. pubs) they have down there. All I can remember is that there is the Casino and some Irish pub (who's name has escaped me).

Any suggestions on which are the best places to go? Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated, and should make my stay in the nations capital more enjoyable...

Cheers in advance.

The Moose
King O'Malleys
Insomnia
In Blue
PJ O'Reilleys
South Pacs *shudder*
City Club
North Bar (Where the Raiders go after the game)
ICBM
Sultans
Red Gecko Bar

All right in the city.

Did you ask the EXACT same question last year or was that another Pamfers fan?

Woodgers, you should really get rid of that quote. Makes you look like a wanker.

You clearly posted it yourself under another name.

Speaking of wanker posts...........

Nothing wrong with South Pacs, althought questions have to be asked when you see the DJ surrounded by a steel cage. I'd suggest the City Club if you want to see 60 year old Mediterranean Descendants pulling each others hair and kicking each other whilst on the ground.

Mooseheads & Acadamey is where the women are at. All the pubs are salami bars.

Don't be so hard on yourself champ.

 

[Raider Ultra]

You think Mooseheads isn't a sausage sizzle?

 

[woodgers]

For sure. The Moose is a wiener festival from way back.

Syd, this guy Flyer works next to me. He doesn't like League but has a real thing for Hawthorn and Anthony Callea. When he isn't rubbishing League he is trying to pick up Men at certain 'exclusive' nightspots.

Come on Flyer, Parra Panther might want to know where the AFL bars are in case he is keen for some Y-M-C-A.

I believe your favourite homo midget idol sang at the SOO Woodgers.
must have been popular demand.

NRL.....Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa!!

 

[woodgers]

I believe the final 12 from Idol 1 sang the National Anthem, Holy Grail as well as ACTAFL favourite 'up there Cazaly' at last years GF? I'm surprised Shannon Noll didn't keep the Collingwood faithful happy by singing about his big black car.

Anthony could really help the guys relax in the scrums, don't you think?

Guys, I'm sure you don't need reminding to keep the Raiders forum clean - please don't make any unfounded accusations - cheers

 

[thickos]

BTW they were very funny calls, but putting players' names to things can't be tolerated.

Gold.

What do you call an NRL player who has a dog and a cat?

Bisexual.

 

[*Luscious*]

Id reccomend mooseheads! its my favourite one!
Shooters is pretty good, get $2 drinks till 12am
South Pac a hole, wouldnt reccomend echo bar either!!!
ICBM is pretty boring, same with In blue!
Academys not bad!

Did you ask the EXACT same question last year or was that another Pamfers fan?

No, last year I only went down in the afternoon of the game, and went home straight after, so it would not have been me.

Thanks for the info everybody - duly noted.

go to Kingston or Manuka. Lot33 in Kingston is one of the few things I miss in Canberra!
