One that actually shows sporting events when they are on. For Patriots and Bruins. One where you could hang out until the game is over (10 pm for Hockey games).

Another must - good craft beer selection, decent apps for food.

Am I asking too much?

Hi there- We’re new to the area and looking for a place to watch the Eagles game this afternoon. Something low-key with friendly people and good wings. Thanks!

Hey, I’m just wondering if anyone here lives in the Alfred/Mount Vernon/Birch Street area and if so, are you getting your mail? I haven’t since last week even though I’ve gotten Informed Delivery posts every morning telling me I had mail coming that day and the post office had absolutely no idea what I was talking about. I know the construction guys got the sidewalk closed signs out, but the sidewalks are not actually closed. I don’t know why they don’t move them, but there are plenty of people up and down sidewalks all day. I don’t really know any of my neighbors. I’m kind of new to the neighborhood so I’m just trying to see if this is a problem or if other people are dealing with the same situation. of course this week I had college books (hundreds of dollars worth of them) and they are 7 days late already. I don’t know what to do and I’m so frustrated I wanna cry. Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

This week check out Bites and Beats in Saco for a night of music and food.

Paws Downtown returns in Saco on Saturday featuring a day of live music, vendors, parade of dogs, dog costume contest and more.

Hi all,

I got a ticket the other day for essentially doing a "California stop" right when a cop drove by. To be fair, I looked both ways and no one was coming for like a mile ... I'm contesting the ticket and I guess they do hearings on Zoom now for traffic trials. I've heard things about Maine offering cops incentives and overtime if they attend hearings. Does anyone know the likelihood that the cop will be there? Thanks!
