Default Naming My Basement Bar

I'm in the process of renovating the basement and turning it into a mancave.

My plan is to have a wet bar, big screen, and sports memorabilia all around.

The main wall will likely be framed autographed Kris Versteeg Flames jersey, TV, frame autographed Matthew Tkachuk Flames jersey, door to office, framed autographed Juan Gonzalez jersey, door to craft room, the Framed Flames photos and hockey photos down the hall.

For context as most here might be aware. I follow two sports and have two favourite teams. The Flames (obviously) and the reigning World Series Champion Texas Rangers.

I'm trying to come up with a name to call the basement bar.

I like the naming tradition of _____ and _____ (eg: Bull & Finch, Crown & Moose, Ship & Anchor).

I can't really come up with something that incorporates both teams.

The best I've come up with is "Eighty-Nine 23" which is after the years each team won their first (and to date only) Championship.

However, I'm opening it up to the hive mind for ideas.

The Fire and Champion

Or being nerdy and pulling the names of the affiliates?

Wranglers and Roughriders/Rangers?
