April 14th Weekend Preview

Well, it is a very light weekend for arena sports in Kansas City. The Command have a bye this week (didn’t they just have one 4 weeks ago) so there is no Arena Football to watch. The Mavericks kick off the Turner Conference Finals against the Fort Wayne Komets on Friday in Fort Wayne. If you do want to catch some of the playoff action you have two options. You can attend the official watch party at the Lee’s Summit Brew Top Pub & Patio (700 NE Woods Chapel Road) or you can watch it online at http://chltv.neulion.com/chltv/ (and also watch the Wichita Thunder in the Berry Conference Finals against the Texas Brahmas).
If you rather catch the NHL Playoffs, you can head down to The Blue Line Sports Bar where they will have every single playoff game. Hopefully, the Penguins can bounce back from that massive choke job in game one last night. The Blue Line has great food and great service. If you try them once I am sure you will be back again and again.
For those of you that have a sophisticated taste for alcohol then Saturday afternoon the Power & Light District has the event for you. INK Magazine is presenting The 1st Annual KC Whiskey Tour – the midwest's premier whiskey tasting event at KC Live! from 2–6pm. The event features 50+ North American bourbons & whiskeys, live music from the 51% Blues Band, hand-rolled cigars, giveaways & more! The event benefits KC Young Variety & KC Fire Historical Society. Check out a variety of great items available at the Silent Auction, benefiting both organizations (cash or check only please).   
A Limited Number of Tickets Are Still Available – Don't Miss Out! Festival tickets are just $40 and include: 12 tasting tokens, souvenir glass, informational pamphlet & map.
Purchase your tickets today at www.missiontix.com/KCWhiskeyTour or inside Maker's Mark Bourbon House & Lounge.
Thats it for the weekend. Have a great time no matter what you choose.
