A lot of lesbians don’t like to watch sports that much. I don’t think they may want to spend time in a sports bar.
Maybe, but certain womens sports have a huge lesbian audience, especially the WNBA.
All of them don’t need to. But in a city as large and lefty as Portland, you only need a small percentage to support one bar.
You would be wrong about lesbian sports fans. They are legion in Austin and Dallas. Austin has a whole entertainment and bar district for lesbians and gays it’s massively successful packed full nearly 7 days a week. Dallas has a number of lesbian sports bars in the “gayberhood” some have been open for decades. Again packed full of lesbians. I have a former student and close personal friend of mine who routinely invites me out with her and her GF to do sundayfunday on the patio. Th 36 are hardcore women’s soccer fanatics as well as women’s NBA. College women’s basketball is in March madness right now a.d those bars are full of lesbians spending money drinking and watching those games it’s a solid money maker in multicultural cities maybe not so much in red neck flyover country but in major metros they make bank. Portland is Austin’s official sister city and everyone calls Austin the Portland of Texas so it is a true fit. I fully expect a lesbian sports bar in Portland to be full of patrons on the regular. It’s solid business sense find a undercooked market in a location and fill it. Given the high percentage of LQBTQ in Portland the demographics are there to support a thriving business.
