When a Good Time Turns Around

It’s getting nasty folks. If you haven’t figured out who Barack Obama is or wonder who will whip whose you know what, then come on out tonight for the last Presidential Debate at 9PM. Trivia will start promptly after the debate, so stick around to win your $50 bar tab. It is soo nasty out there, that the only antidote is another cuddly hit of Putin and his new baby tiger:
Putin\'s Baby Tiger!

A Homeless Hoop-de-la!

Saturday 10/11 is the last bout of the season for Ithaca’s own roller derby team. The Ithaca SufferJets will take-on and take-out the Hellions of Troy at 6PM at Cass Park. Cheer them on and then party down with the team after the match at Pixel.

 

Town Hell Debate

We’re still waiting for the crash and burn moment, so we’re putting Obama and McCain up on the big screen once again this Tuesday 10/7 for the second Presidential Debate at Belmont University. We’re live at 9PM. So come early to grab a seat and stay late with new Tuesday night Disc Jockey Tipsy Russell.

VP Debates on the Big Screen

Yes! We are showing the Vice Presidential Debates this Thursday at 9PM. Wolves! Foreign policy! Hot politicians! Dance party!

Putin can see you from Russia!

Two Things at Once!

If all the candidates show up, we’ll have the Presidential Debate up on the big screen this Friday at 9PM. I’m assuming the economy will be saved by tonight so there’s a good chance it’ll happen. Democracy!

No Country for Old Men

Art Show Art Show!

You might have noticed we have some new art on the walls at Pixel but the official opening is this Saturday at 8PM. Come meet Sophy Bot! “An absurdist and artist whose medium is life, Sophy Bot challenges expectations with logical nonsense and nonsensical logic while doing a bit of this that and everything (and sometimes nothing at all). Her current exhibition focuses on the digital realm and its impact on how we view the world around us. From insect invasions to real-world emoticons, Bot’s works depict a newly digitized modernity.” Art!

Wet Hops!

We have a special treat from Ithaca Beer this Thursday at 7PM: cask conditioned and wet hopped Outdoor Harvest Ale. This limited and draft only brew is packed with New York State Cascade hops from the Pederson Farms in Seneca Castle. The hops are used as is and without kiln drying; imparting a rich floral aroma without the usual bitterness of a highly hopped IPA. Combine this with a tasty malt base and you have a very drinkable beer. Drinkable here while the cask lasts, from growlers filled at the brewery and on draft at Pixel soon.

Monday Movie Nights

We’re kicking off Monday Movie Night with a Coen brothers marathon. Movie starts at 8PM with Happy Hour all night. Here’s the line-up:

Brew Fest Pregame

If you haven’t already heard, the second annual Ithaca Brew Fest is this Saturday at Stewart Park. You should definitely check it out. However, if you want to make a full weekend of it, you should be at Pixel this Friday at 7PM for a Jim Beam bourbon and bourbon cocktail tasting. This means free cocktails, snacks and a slightly academic tasting of Jim Beam, Maker’s Mark, Basil Hayden’s and Knob Creek. They’re also bringing white dog, which is straight out of distillation, uncut and with no barrel aging. White dog is a Team Pixel favorite. Free whiskey! Free whiskey!

Flavor Country First

Pixel Lounge, your fair and balanced bar, is giving equal airtime to the GOP Convention. So break out of your tiger cage and hear what McCain has to say tonight around 9PM. A not so conservative dance party will follow as a matter of course.
