Last night, the Well Dressed Sports Girlfriend and I went to a sports bar. I drag her to a lot of sports bars. Thankfully, she happens to like beer and is willing to put up with watching a few games on the weekend. This said, we do end up spending a fair amount of money on the weekends, watching the three football teams I follow. I've thought about creating that sports bar feel at home, without making the place look cheesy or cheap.
The place to start may just be with a few classy looking jersey wall hangings. The best jersey wall hangings, in my opinion, are clean, new or unused throwback jerseys. Those jerseys can be expensive, so we'd like to offer a tip on how to display them in an inexpensive manner.
Check out this company, Ultra Mount. The mounts are inexpensive compared to other company's displays and they look nice. When the jersey seems out of date on the wall, you can either wait it out until the thing becomes throwback, or replace the jersey with your favorite rookie.
Throw in a few comfortable chairs, an extra beer frigde, and a large TV, and you're well on you way to setting up an at home sports bar.
