Local restaurants are gearing up for the big college basketball tournaments this weekend. Clay Acheson from Logan’s Irish Pub said that though they don’t typically get a lot of business for the tournaments. He said that this could be because it follows St. Patrick’s Day at the restaurant but also could be because they’re not viewed as a sports bar. He said they will show the games anyways.

Business software company Womply explained that most restaurants and bars see an average increase of 2.4% in sales during this time. Acheson said that they, like many of the downtown restaurants and bars, will have specials going for the tournaments.
