Fort Lauderdale’s Only Gay Bar Where Sports Come First

Fort Lauderdale, Florida – May 1, 2006 – A different venue for the sports minded gay man and woman of South Florida is about to open in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Sidelines Sport Bar, located in the heart of Wilton Manors, is a state-of-the-art sports-themed gay bar offering friendly service and quality entertainment in comfortable surroundings. This gay owned and operated club features multiple flat screen TV’s to catch the season’s most exciting games, pool tables, dart boards and even a free foosball table.

There are hundreds of gay sports enthusiasts in this town, whether they are athletes who belong to a team or fans who just like to catch a game on TV. So when owners Laurie Whittaker, a South Florida attorney, got together with her good friend Marty, they sought to provide a relaxed space where gays could watch a game, enjoy the atmosphere and the company, all in a gay environment. And, when the games are over, customers will be treated to the best in music and video.

It’s the realization of a dream for the pair. “I’ve fantasized about opening up a bar and the idea of a sports bar was an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up”, explains Whittaker.

With the popularity of gay sports leagues and organizations in the city, plenty of them should provide patrons. The bar is directing a considerable amount of its marketing to reach them.

Sidelines Sports Bar is located at 2031 Wilton Drive (formerly Circuit), Wilton Manors, Florida, 33305. Their telephone number is (954) 563-8001.

Sidelines Sports Bar welcomes gay sports fans to come and watch the plays in a friendly and relaxed environment.
