 Easy does it... by M0B1US At the end of a long corridor seemingly going nowhere along the upper floor of the castle walls is a mediaeval fairground style target game with a difference! Instead of using a gun to shoot at targets, for 50 crowns you get an authentic looking crossbow to fire crossbow bolts on a 50ft firing range at a target approximately 2ft by 3ft - which is in fact quite difficult! In my five shots I managed to hit the target paper twice, though not in the bullseye. Of course, I was tempted to poke a couple of holes in the bullseye - but I wouldn't do that... ;-) Not bad fun, especially if you can get a little competition going!
One Crossbow and 5 quarrels/bolts and a target to shoot at and keep as a souvenir! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Golden LaneDirections: Climb the stairs near the entrance to Golden lane and follow the long passageway to the southern end towards the Dalibor Tower.

The weekend whilst I was in Prague was when the World Cup qualifiers were being held. Scotland were playing Belarus on the Saturday afternoon, and so decided to watch it on TV in a bar - not that I had any real expectations of us getting a result, but you never know. Having already come across Rocky O'Reilly's a couple of days previously it seemed a natural venue to indulge in what is just about the only sporting activity I get these days. So Rocky O's it was (see also separate tip in "nightlife"). Even though we lost our game, and are now knocked out of the competition, I had a really cracking day! I arrived fairly early and found myself a stool at the bar with a decent view of the TV that the Scotland match was being shown - also playing that day were England and then later on Holland v Czech Republic. As the Guinness went down, the bar filled up, with predominantly English supporters plus a good sized contingent of Dutchmen - the atmosphere was really convivial, partisan yes, but really friendly. The English (and it pains me to say this) were perfectly behaved, actually singing proper songs rather than the usual "football chants" that they have a reputation for.
TV Screens, Beer Pumps, Bar Stools and etc.! Not enough space above so continuing here: Then next to me a couple of women sat down and ordered some lunch, recognising their accent we got chatting and it turned out that they were from Aberdeen (The Scotland One!). So here we were - a little trio of Scots amidst a sea of English and Dutch - the conversation flowed, the beer flowed and the camera clicked away. It really was an enjoyable day, thanks ladies, thanks you Engish guys (hmmmmmmm) and thanks to the handsome Dutchman who looked after my bar stool whenever I went to the loo!!

 What's he crying for? Football AND tits...jammy! by RockTadgers Prague is home to three main football clubs: Sparta Prague, Viktoria Zizkov and my team, Slavia Prague. The standards aren't great. An average league game looks like a replay of a Second Division relegation dogfight, played in slow motion. Currently playing second fiddle to the fascists of Sparta, Slavia draw in piffling crowds of about three thousand for an league game. The atmosphere is pretty sedate, apart from derbies and European matches, when drums, airraid sirens and trumpets intimidate the opposition. Other highlights include fights breaking out among their own supporters, fireworks raining down on the running track, and more riot police than fans. Unreconstructed football!
Bring an umbrella if you sit on the lower tier, because the hardcore on the upper level sometimes celebrate a goal by chucking their beer around. Also, bring some lubrication if you're travelling by bus to a big match - you'll need it to squeeze into one on the journey back into town!

 ice hockey by muya78 Together with soccer, Czech people loves ice hockey, and Czech players are some of the best players in the world. Hasek, Jagr, Elias, Nedved are only a few names of NHL Czech champions. While in Prague I had the opportunity to watch a friendly game between HC Sparta Praha and HC Ceskč Budejovice at the T-Mobile arena. 40Ck for 2 tickets (!!!!!!!!!!) and 80 minutes (4 periods instead of 3) of pure fun in a less crowded than usual arena. For who cares, there's also a nice little hockey shop just in front of the arena, where it's possible to buy local team jerseys, included the HC Sparta's one, of course Theme: OtherAddress: Za Elektrárnou 419 - Holesovice - Prague 7Directions: tram n°22 from Malostranskŕ
