I want to have a bar play the semis finals or maybe even the finals for the LoL World Championship but I don't wanna impose on a bar unless I see enough of a following down to watch.

Anyone here down to watch?

Maybe Iā€™m wrong, but playing esports as a main event would very quickly become that barā€™s identity. It would completely change the crowd they draw.

Thereā€™s probably money to be made there, but itā€™d be ā€œthat bar I donā€™t go toā€.

I honestly thought that going to watch "the LOL Semis" meant that the Freedom Convoy was back in town.

You can reach out to Kingfisher on 14th. I know the bar manager and owner. They would be into supporting LoL if the timing works out.

Thatā€™s fine. Theyā€™ve chosen their identity, ā€œsports barā€.

Just saying that ā€œeSports Barā€ is a whole new vibe, and I donā€™t think you can just dip your toe in that pond. No offense to you esports lovers, but if a bar has league of legends playing, theyā€™re communicating very clearly that theyā€™re not the bar for me. Which is fine, but as a result I think management probably has some hesitancy.

One of the most toxic communities anywhere, but I think if you make these people interact in real life, a lot of that toxicity goes away. Anonymity really is the worst thing to give a human.

They used to have watch parties up in Friendship. I canā€™t remember what bar it was - it was the one next to the hookah bar

Last Call in NoMa plays esports on the tvā€™s often and would gladly put it on for you Iā€™m sure!
