Bloody Mary Breakdown: A Simple Guide for Early Morning Fans

Hey everybody, I hope you've had as enjoyable of a week as I have, and that it keeps going through the weekend, (East Coast worries notwithstanding, of course. Hope everybody there can stay safe). I originally planned for this post to be a review of a local watering-hole following Portland Timbers' match against DC United, but when the rumor of an early start time surfaced on Thursday my mind wandered from mentally preparing for a lovely evening in a bar to preparing for an entirely different beast: The Early Morning Kick Off.
