Sports bars can save you money. Here’s the calculation:
Most normal people who like sports probably really only watch about 5 full games of football / soccer / hockey a month.
Those same people have a super expensive cable package to watch those games at home – between $80 and $120.
Compare that to:
Go to Sportsbar 5 times a month, drink 2 pints of the finest microbrew beer, leave a great tip. That’s 5 x 2 x $8, or $80.
Your choice is $80 and 10 pints of beer (bar), or at least $80 and no beer (cable). Sports bars of North America unite! Organize yourselves for a marketing campaign to make average cable customers understand the cable companies are taking away their beer.
