I was way wrong, got me.

I still very easily understand the very obvious difference between government mandated lock downs and market capitalism, so I wouldn't be throwing stones if I were you.

I had a couple employees over the summers that were 19 and 20 years old. Talking to them opened my eyes to youth activities.

I’m just like you, only with much fewer options. Most of my friends (and myself) have pretty cool bar setups at their place which we find way nicer than putting up with the crap at a normal bar. Besides, my ring of friends has shrunk drastically as I’ve aged.

I might hit a bar once a year to catch a game with visiting friends, and I’ve always left disappointed.

There aren’t any children near me, so I’m relegated to yelling that at random dogs.

Sometimes you have to do what you have to do.

I’ve honestly done it. It makes me laugh.

I don't think people go to sports bars to watch specific games very often, at least not games of teams they are a fan of unless in out of market areas.

I watched a game last year in Chicago at Toons which is a Chiefs Bar and it was pretty insane. You had to get there an hour before kick off to get a decent seat. The place was wall to wall Chiefs fans having a blast. :-)

March Madness and stuff like that can be fun at a bar but I wouldn't go to one to watch a Chiefs game unless I was out of town.

I know the thread topic is specifically sports bars but I really look at this topic as effecting local restaurants, breweries and pubs etc...

I live in a town outside of KC but not too far. Our local watering hole is mostly people I'd say from 35 to 65 years old. And it's NOT a bunch of overt/covert drunks. It's a bunch of people who's kids played sports together, went to school together, etc who can all go meet for a beer, grab a bite to eat, and tell stories and shit. It's called social gathering. I don't think I've ever been in there and not seen at least three people I know that I can catch up with. Maybe it's a unique local spot type of thing. We go almost every thursday night right after work (I'm off Friday). Generally we don't watch Chiefs games there, because I'd rather watch at home so I can do replays, and pause to take a piss or walk my dog.

Oh shut the hell up, this thread isn't about masks

I don't like sports bars to watch games of big importance to me but grabbing dinner with multiple tvs and different games is fine with the right atmosphere.

I use to hang at sports bars. Now, it’s only on football game days. I go to a lot of different type of bars now.

What makes a true "sports bar"?

I've always had places near me that had TVs and they showed sports, but not what I would consider a sports bar. They hardly ever had the sound from the game and the workers rarely changed the TVs unless someone asked. Yeah they showed Chiefs games but I went to one for lunch and a local city council meeting was on half the TVs.

I usually go to the bar when I know nobody will be there on Saturday and leave when the crowd shows up.

I'm an anti social drunk

We had to cancel our March Madness trip to Vegas damnit. That would be like going to one GIGANTIC sports bar.
