Bar airing women's sports opening in Minneapolis

A bar dedicated to women’s sports opens March 1 in Minneapolis. It’s a first in the Midwest. A Bar of their Own is taking over the Tracy’s Saloon space in the Seward neighborhood. Owner Jillian Hiscock says she and others took note of The Sports Bra’s historic opening in Portland last year, the nation’s first bar exclusively showing women’s sports. She kept waiting for it to happen here and never imagined she would be the one to take on that task. A Bar of their Own is the result of a successful crowdfunding campaign and will regularly be open Wednesday to Sunday. They’ll be serving the beloved chicken wings from Tracy’s Saloon along with offering vegan and gluten free options.
