MAHONING VALLEY, Ohio - While some Patriots and Seahawks fans watched the big game from home, others rooted for their favorite team at their favorite bar or restaurant.

For those going out, businesses across the valley held celebrations of their own for the big game.

Over at Penguin City, their watch party and food specials kept the bar full. They held a ‘Penguinito Bowl’ watch party.

“We are showing the game on the stage. We got the big screen behind me. All our TVs will be playing the halftime show. You know, we are just trying to have a good time,” said Yadira Colyar, Penguin City Taproom manager.

Others used the game as a reason to visit their favorite restaurant. 

“The food and the camaraderie with the people that we hang around with,” said George David of Canfield.
