Sunday plans? Let's watch some WNBA together!

If you’re reading this, it’s because you signed up to follow along as I work to start a sports bar in SF centered on women’s sports. Thanks for being on the ride.

Anyone else spend this week agonizing about all the different possible configurations of WNBA playoff schedules and times? …Just me? Cool, cool, cool. I just really wanted it all to shake out in a way that let us watch some basketball together this weekend. And when the Atlanta Dream slid into that 8th position yesterday and made all the other matchups click into place, we were left with a good one out here on Pacific time:

Join me on Sunday, Sept 22, at 7 PM at Barebottle in Bernal Heights (1525 Cortland Ave in San Francisco) for a nightcap on the first day of WNBA playoff action. We’ll chase away the Sunday Scaries by watching the Seattle Storm take on the back-to-back and defending champion Las Vegas Aces. Izzy’s Cheesesteaks will be on site till at least 7:30, the drink options will be plentiful, and we can play pinball at halftime. Good plan? Good plan.

Dogs are welcome, kids are welcome (mine should be there, probably playing pinball), outside food is welcome (but the cheesesteaks are also pretty bomb). Tell your friends, come hang out, say hi, get stickers, cheer, dream big about how this could be the Valkyries next year, and head on into the first week of fall powered by the sheer collective joy of watching women’s sports together. Hope to see you there!
