It's been a couple of years since I visited this joint but a reader of the old (and shuttered) Tosa Blog recently contacted me and brought to my attention a new website for Europe's most popular Packer Bar.
Paris
is probably not on anyone’s shortlist of hotbeds for American football,
but on Rue St.-Jacques in the Latin Quarter, near the Sorbonne and
Notre Dame, is an establishment, called W.O.S. Bar, where Packers fans
gather each week to watch the team play. Patrons of the bar, where a
self-proclaimed American expatriate troubadour who goes by the name of
Cisco Kid performs after most games, claim that the Packers are the most
beloved American football team in Europe, and the bar bills itself as
“the official Green Bay Packers bar in Europe.” Perhaps it’s the shared
love of cheese that is responsible for such an unlikely Paris-Wisconsin
pairing.

The Frau and I are heading back to Paris early in the new year. IT seems only right that we pay this friendly place another visit.
