Top 7 Sports Bar Games

Top 7 Sports Bar Games

Smart bar owners have long figured out that if they add popular bar games to their establishments, people will hang out there longer. That means more drinks and money spent.

Have you ever wondered what the best sport bar games are? Read on for a list of the top 7 popular bar games.

 

1. Cornhole

Cornhole is an inexpensive and popular bar game. Best of all, if you are handy, you can build a cornhole board yourself.

All you need is some tools and pieces of wood and plywood and you're set. Add bean bags and enjoy a cornhole tournament.

It doesn't matter what the weather is like outdoors, cornhole is a favourite at sports bars and pubs when the weather is awful.

 

2. Darts

You can't talk about sports bar games without mentioning darts!  There's something about watching the game and throwing darts at a stand-up dartboard during the commercial break that everyone loves.

Challenge a friend to a game, with the loser buying the other one a drink. Or make it a championship and put a darts trophy on the line!

 

 

3. Beer Pong
Beer pong is completely different than ping pong because beer pong is first and foremost a drinking game. In beer pong, you use six or 10 drinking cups full of beer to form a triangle.

Two teams take turns throwing a ping pong ball across the table into one of the cups of beer on the other side.

When a player sinks the ball, that team must remove the cup from the pyramid, drink the beer, and set the cup aside.

You don't need a game board to play this game. Ping pong balls and cups are all you need.

 

4. Hook and Ring Toss

Ring toss is one of the most popular bar games. It's got a simple construction and doesn't take up much room, but it can provide groups of people fun for hours as they try to drunkenly aim the rings.

You can make a set for under $10.

 

5. Checkers and Chess

Checkers and chess are mandatory sports bar games. The games are easy to store and whip out or leave set up on certain tables.

It's fun to play and watch as people get into the games. While chess might not be for everyone, it's unlikely that you'll ever meet someone who doesn't like checkers.

 

6. Ping Pong

Sports bars and ping pong are a perfect combination. You don't even need proper ping pong tables. All you need is a regular table and some ping pong balls and the game is ready for competitors.

Ping pong is a satisfying game for everyone. Whacking a ball fiercely across a table is liberating. Challenge your friends to a ping pong tournament and see how much better you'll feel afterward.

You could almost consider ping pong a workout.

 

7. Retro Arcade Games

Retro arcade games are the perfect nostalgic game to play at a sports bar. From Donkey Kong and Duck Hunt to Pac-Man and Space Invaders, people will love going after the high score.

You can't help but enjoy yourself when the classic arcade games are right in front of you.
