Whether you’re rooting for the Tar Heels, Blue Devils, or one of the other NC men's or women's teams competing inthe NCAA Championship, we’re here to calm the madness with a list of spots where you can cheer them on — organized by vibe.

Reminder: Men’s games begin Tuesday, March 18"today" in NL and women’s games begin Wednesday, March 19.

If the food is just as important as the game

Waldo's Wings, 2855 Reynolda Rd.
Come to Waldo's for the delicious wings — we recommend getting the wing sampler to try four different varieties — stay for the sports games that are on the many TVs.

The Hungry Palate, 239 W. 4th St.
Space is somewhat limited at this bar and grill, but if you can get a seat at the bar you'll have full view of the TVs. Try the $18 Beef on Weck and four wings, a thin sliced roast beef sandwich served on a Costanzo's Kimmelweck or Kaiser roll.

The Quiet Pint Tavern, 1420 W. First St.
You'll get more than bar food when you head to this neighborhood tavern near downtown. Dine on dishes like Korean pork mac, Margherita flatbread, or Thai chicken tacos while cheering on your team.

Where you'll be surrounded by fans

Second & Green Tavern, 207 N. Green St.
Catch every game of Rounds 1 and 2 at Second & Green, where you can also snack on pizzas and play a round of pool if you need a break from watching the screens.

Miller's on Trade, 622 Trade St. NW
This Trade Street spot with the vibe of a neighborhood bar has 21 TVs for you to keep an eye on the games. It's also got several comfortable couches + you can sign up for Miller's own bracket challenge.

If you want a laid-back atmosphere

STEM Beverage and Supply, 626 W. 4th St.
Want to watch the game in a more upscale setting? Sip on cocktails like a blueberry mojito or the "Miss North Carolina" while watching the games on TV at this local spot.

Recreation Billiards, 412 W. 4th St.
This longtime billiards and sports bar may not have the most laid back atmosphere, but you can always head to the whiskey bar downstairs to escape the major sports fanatics.
