Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Isn't Up To Speed On Jeremy Lin, 'Linning'

Steelers Bars in Seattle


Next Sunday I will be traveling in the Pacific Northwest.  Of course, the Steelers will also be playing the Bears.  I was hoping somebody could clue me in on some Steelers bars in the Seattle area where my girlfriend and I can catch the game.  Bars in Seattle proper, as oppposed to outside Seattle, are preferable because we will have to catch a flight back to the East Coast shortly after the game ends.  Any and all help is appreciated.  Go Steelers.

I don't know of any but

I’ve been to Seattle for games a few times and generally, though they don’t really follow football up there, they really hate Steelers fans. Kids, wifes, girlfriends are not excluded.

NO

Just hit the Fox Sports Grill in DT Seattle on 6th and Pike, next to Niketown. I lived there until 2004, consider yourself lucky, there wasn’t ish when I lived there. You won’t find a true Steelers bar in Seattle, they’re all out of the city to the south and east. Now I’m in Dallas… sans the haters.

Be sure to hit Peso’s on lower Queen Anne for the best tex/mex in town, Dick’s hamburgers, and the Icon Grill for the best chops. If you get time, try to hit Beth’s Cafe in North Seattle for a great breakfast. City buses can get you around town if you don’t have a rental.

Alright, okay, I don't dance, no way I just take my Terrible Towel out and wave it around in the air!!!!

Two Very Active Steelers Bars in Seattle Area

Both on the eastside (10 min across Lake Washington)- think Upper St. Clair types – but not at these two bars with plenty of “yinzers” to take the pretensions out of the locals.

1) Time Out Sports Bar in Kirkland (California-like lake front uppercrust community) – owner Chris Stonecipher is a Burger – one of the suburbs to the south. The more mellow of the two.

2) Sideline Sports Bar in Bellevue – a little more intense.

You have to remember that since SB40 the Hawks fans have a particularly acute dislike for all things Black & Gold which extends to Steeler fans. Luckily, this only applies to the distinct minority of folks who follow the Seahawks. Most locals don’t give a hoot particularly in the city as the most rabid fans are concentrated in the blue color suburbs north and south.
