Moraga's Pennini's Is the Latest Place for Gael Watching

Take a family-style restaurant with a few empty tables, add a skosh of social media strategy, throw in some deals on pizza and pitchers of beer and whaddaya get?

Shoulda been here when S.M.C. played Gonzaga - that was crazy - but Gael fans showed up at Pennini's in Moraga Thursday for a little socializing, great deals on pizza and beer and a chance to watch the Gaels hold off the Broncos of Santa Clara on Pennini's humongoid 68-inch flat screen.

Pennini's hooked up with social media consultant Linda Lopez to set up a Facebook page where she friended many St. Mary's students and people of Lamorinda. Since then, Pennini's has been the place to be for S.M.C. away games.

The restaurant uses Facebook to announce specials, deals and events. Friend them and you won't miss out on the next Gael away game and $5 pitcher night. Become a fan of Lamorinda Patch on Facebook and you won't miss a good story.
