It would be awesome an E-Sports bar, nothing beats a regular sports bar as it is, sitting back on a saturday after noon with a burger and pint watching the football results come in.

The only thing is, you would have to stream alot of stuff onto projectors i guess as theres like no TV channels with any SC2 on as of yet, but awesome idea. Could have like streams around the bar from some of the Liquid streams :3

Awesome

If you're doing market research, shouldn't there be a separate poll for Stockholm residents only?

You can stream from a computer to a TV. No projector needed.

you know what you should do? Make this ESPORTS bar

1. ask every customer waht their favorite Multiplayer game is and make stats to use for broadcasting
2. PC bang during day is a good idea but also means bigger investments and makes the bar less appealing to general public. makes it too nerdy.
3. make it look like a cozy cumfy cafe. nothing flashy.
4. franchise it and branch alll over the world :D inclusing amsterdam pls I will make you rich with my beer purchasing

a pure esport bar would be pretty epic.

Have the bar with TV's showing replays of games etc, live streams what ever. Serve drinks have club nights whatever, but also keep some nights clean for Esports

You could also have a small cyber cafe attached in the back which could play host to tournaments of those not drunk

definitely should have an e-sports bar. with a resident e-sports team! it would probably be a pretty small place, not like O'Leary's or those typical sports bars with two floors etc. but maybe in the future? in that case, there could be a stage with booths for live matches.. but more importantly for the first venue you need to focus on good displays with seats positioned for optimal viewing. not some pale projector screens.

This would be really great! I live in Gävle but i would def take the train with some mates during the weekend to down some beers and watch some GSL or stuff like that!

The most important thing is to always have good content to stream, and alwas the newest. Def would not go bar/i-cafe. Focus on the bar aspect and dont alienate the general public i.e if I wanted to have a beer with some friends of mine ( specially girls) I wouldnt feel silly taking them there.

Nerd - haha why u socialies with ppl not liking u play epic sc2 ?! u so stupid, lol noob.

Me - Geez, be realistic man...

E-SPORTSBAR HWAITING!

Hope u feel my input is worth reading.

Peace!

P.S U should start a facebook-group about this and inv ppl that lives around Stockholm and the rest of Sweden. Could start by sending invites to the sweds on TL and then they will probably forward it to their friends.

Then u can really see if its viable.

I'd love to see that kind of bar, but not in Stockholm!

I'm selfish so I want all the awesome stuff close to where I live!

But seriously, it would be great, I would sure go to that kind of bar, if there was one close to where I live.

Man, MLG would be golden! I'd be there with my mates for sure, at least one of the days. Though I'd suggest adding a *Please do not answer if you won't have an opportunity to come/do not live in Sweden* tag for specific events, might give a slightly less skeved poll.
