Ooh!  Ooh!  I want to watch the hockey game!  (As long as y'all won't throw
things at me if I root for Canada....)  They have an NHL team in North
Carolina--there have to be SOME hockey fans in the state.

The Bier Garden is listed as a sports bar on Yelp, and their Web site says
they have 16 televisions -- I'm sure we can convince them to tune a measly
one TV to the hockey game.
