It\u2019s Sunday, and you\u2019re really not sure where to watch the Chargers game.\u00a0 How about the heading over to the corner of Mission Boulevard and San Gabriel Street? There, you will find two of Mission Beach\u2019s most famous hangouts: The Beachcomber at 2901 Mission Blvd. and The Pennant at 2893 Mission Blvd. The Beachcomber has been in business and has been a local tradition for more than 20 years. You don\u2019t even have to say Beachcomber, really. You can tell your friends, “Hey meet you at the \u2019Comber,\u2019 and they will know exactly what you are talking about. The Beachcomber is more than just a cool name, however. It is a place where Charger fans have been going for years to cheer their home team.\u00a0 “It\u2019s a place that shines in local charm,” said “Dave,” a resident of Mission Beach.\u00a0“I would not go anywhere else in Mission Beach.” As a bonus, though, right next door is The Pennant.\u00a0 Also a landmark in Mission Beach, The Pennant has a unique charm and welcomes locals \u2014 along with beach visitors \u2014 all year long.\u00a0 Boasting an upper patio section, visitors can enjoy the sun as they watch football every Sunday. \u00a0 But now for the real question. Do the regulars of the Beachcomber like the Pennant and vise-versa? “Hey, I like The Pennant just fine,” Dave said. “I just prefer watching football at the Beachcomber.” Allison, a regular at The Pennant, echoed the sentiment. “I think the Beachcomber is nice,” she said. “I just know more people over here.” So you see, you can\u2019t go wrong with one of the hottest football corners in Mission Beach. Head on over to the Beachcomber or raise your Charger banner at the Pennant \u2014 or do both in the same day.\u00a0 It is possible because they are right across the alley from one other. \u00a0For information about the Beachcomber, call (858) 488-2644. For information about The Pennant, call (858) 488-1671. \u2014 Walter Ruskin is a member of the San Diego Community Newspaper Group\u2019s “Ugly News Team.” Catch his videos and interviews at www.sdnews.com.<\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
