K, you get this going and test the waters, when I finish my degree I'm definitely going to try something like this if it is sustainable.

Asking on an e-sports forum about opening an e-sports bar... This is the most unrepresentative survey one can conduct -.-"

If you do open it, pics please! Share some TL love to the real world =)

Sounds like a terrible and great idea. I probably wouldn't go, but I know people who might.

NIce initative! I think though that having a fulltime e-sportsbar might be too limiting in which people it would attract, but a theme night once a week would be awesome!

Something in the style of Mana Bar would be awesome. Not necessarily e-sports only, but appealing to a wider range of gaming-related interests.

Lol.... I was literally just thinking that an esports bar would be an awesome idea..... shame i live in the UK.....

I have plans to open a Comic Book store with a LAN center inside, perhaps if that is successful I will be able to buy a pub to convert into an sports bar with an esports night.

I know its not the best forum to ask this question, but I want to attract gamers and this is really the best place to do that.

it would be a good idea, but broadcasting what you show would be a tough choice since not many people play/watch a variety of games competitively. just look at things on youtube such as the gamestation (although this isnt its fundamental flaw..), the variety of games just doesnt really work. Machinima is pretty successful but its still found that its had to divide the channel up to keep viewers interested.

for example, one huge sc2 tournament is on, but on the same night a huge LoL tournament is on, unless you have a massive bar/multiple rooms then there may be conflict. but if this idea works it would be AWESOME

That is a very valid point, need to think about that when I check out bars tomorrow!

Well that's does not have to be a problem. In sport bars they usually have quite a few tv's on showing different sports and events.
Really, play for fun!

If you can read up different tournaments you could always put up posters or something like "Friday: Starcraft II Action" and so forth

I would never go to this kind of bar. Just not for me.

Definately man, if you combine it with a good location and cheap booze, you will attract people who might not be as interested in E-sports as TLers. Perhaps they might develop an interest though? Like some note saying: Ask the bartender if you want to have the game explained to you! I guess not every1 in the staff would know of the game, but atleast you would!

The only thing that makes e-sports better is alcohol! I'm 100% in favor of this idea!

I could consider going for special events like streamed finals and such.

If there was one near me I would definitely go, and I would go quite often.
You can think I'm wrong, but that's no reason to quit thinking.

Maby you could have just like 2, 4 or 6 computers, were people could test their skills against each other, like in a real bar you've got the pool table, the dart board and such.
but it sounds like a really great idea and i would love to visit if you decide to launch
