I've never really understood why it's been such a struggle to get some solid sports bars in Calgary.

The formula is pretty simple. Put some tvs all over (those are cheap these days). Supply cold beer. Provide a simple bar food menu.

When you go to a city like Seattle, these bars are everywhere.

In Calgary, and Canada generally, the places can never seem to get those 3 simple components in the same place. I can see the limitations in places where real estate has gotten out of control. However, in Calgary, how hard can it be to make a descent chicken wing and flatbread pizza? Plenty of places do it, but we can't get that and a few flat screen TVs in the same place for some reason.
