The Buns gets Top 8 placement in ESPN's "#1 Sports Bar in North America" search Competing against sports bars in big cities like Detroit, Santa Monica (next to L.A.) and Green Bay the Buns had an uphill battle. Voting was open to everyone and the Buns had a LOT of local support. With morning appearances on WNDU and Fox28 and a piece on WSBT right after Saturday night football, and additional mentions on WNDU (2x) and Fox28 the Buns had a good shot at winning this national recognition spot. In the end, ESPN changed the name of the competition to "1 Sports Bar in North America" and gave the title to a sports bar in Toronto, Canada, which happens to be the location of the headquarters of TSN (The Sports Network) [Canada's version of ESPN]. Coincidentally, ESPN is also a 20% shareholder of TSN. [source Wikipedia] The Buns is still celebrating their new title as One of ESPN's Top 8 Sports Bars in North America and will celebrate this achievement and the support they received from the Michiana community during the week of September 13-19 with a special coupon to their voters. Notes to follow soon. |
