If you're ready for some football, spend the season opener at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort & Spa's new Catalina Sports Bar and Grill in Tuscon, Arizona.

Formerly dubbed Catalina Steakhouse, Catalina Sports Bar and Grill was reopened on Sept. 4 with a new casual tavern-style look, menu and focus on sports fans. Watch the kickoff from one of seven HDTVs and guzzle some beer from local breweries like Barrio and Thunder Canyon. If you visit during happy hour, daily from 4 to 6 p.m., all pints of draft beer cost $2.50, glasses of selected wines are $3 and all cocktails are $5. There are also daily specials available.

Monday - half-price bottles of wine, wing special
Tuesday - free dessert with any steak/seafood/pasta entree
Wednesday - half-price bottles of wine
Thursday - half-price appetizers
Friday - barbecue ribs and wings specials
Saturday - three courses for $39, any soup/salad, entree and dessert
Sunday - prime rib special - any soup/salad, prime rib and baked potato for $29

The restaurant serves various entrees, like a Cuban sandwich with Swiss cheese, chipotle chicken with avocado and pico de gallo, and a cast-iron-seared rib-eye with hash browns and sauteed mushrooms. But since game day falls on a Thursday, take advantage of the half-price apps daily special and order the onion petals with buttermilk ranch or smokey barbecue sauce, the barbecue beef sliders with skinny fires and the official pigskin food, buffalo wings with bleu cheese slaw.

And if your favorite team loses, sit at the bar and drown your sorrow in some more local brew. If you do a bit too much drowning, you can always crash in one of the hotels rooms, which start at $239 a night.
