It's going to be a hot weekend, so we've listed out events that are mostly indoors and involve a lot of sitting.
Why it matters: With highs in the 90s and questionable air quality, it's a good weekend to watch others run around outside instead of doing it yourself.
State of play: Spain and Argentina will face off at 1pm Sunday.
If you go: The following Boulder watering holes have said they'll air the game:
- Avanti Boulder
- Boulder Social
- TooSteppin Saloon
- Bohemian Biergarten
- The Hungry Toad
- Parkway Food Hall
- Winner's Circle
- Wibby Brewing
- Left Hand Brewing Company
- La Mariposa
