I want to watch a streaming sports match on my laptop with some buddies. So I need a place with a good internet connection, electrical outlets, and no problem with me setting up a laptop at the table to watch the match. Oh yeah, it's a plus if they have affordable drinks. What are my options?

I imagine with the sound off pretty much any place would be fine with it...but with the sound on, that sounds like it would be very, very , very annoying for anyone else at the bar. Like if somebody brought their own radio to a bar.

Sounds like the lamest thing to do. If it's an important match and you nee d the audio watch at home.

Go to a multi-bang maybe? They're set up with access to the internet but only really designed for a couple of people. There are tons all around gangnam.

Doesn't that kind of defeat the point of watching it with friends? This really sounds like a blast: going to a bar with some buddies while you all huddle around a pair of headphones and a laptop watching a match. Watching it at home sounds infinitely better.
