Dayton-area fans of the Cincinnati Bengals have plenty of options to watch Sunday’s 1 p.m. playoff showdown with the San Diego Chargers.

Sports bars of all stripes — even those normally affiliated with Cleveland Browns or Pittsburgh Steelers fans — will tune in Sunday’s game, since their preferred teams are also watching the playoffs on television this year.

Here’s a partial list of the Dayton area’s sports bars — but we (and you) know there are many more places out there that will have the game on a flat-screen television and will sell you a brew and a plate of wings or quesadillas to fill you up while you get your fill of NFL playoff football that actually involves an Ohio team:
