Where do you like to watch sports in Reno? Any go to options for the Super Bowl or Golden Knights games?
If you feel options are limited, two Reno locals Derek Sornson and Tristen Houston are behind a new spot for sport aficionados set to open at 95 N Sierra Street in the Spring called DUBS Sports Lounge.
That location previously was the Stick Sports Lounge which closed after eight years in business last year.
The two owners both in their late 20s who met at UNR already have a track record by opening the popular orange colored Vistro on 1st street and now felt ready to expand into a sports venture.
DUBS plans to have over 25 TVs with game-day viewing events, 90s and early 2000s sports memorabilia on the walls, classic food and specialty craft shots.
“DUBS is not just another business venture; it's a heartfelt invitation to our Reno community to come together and create new memories in the heart of the city. We've created a space where sports come to life, friendships are celebrated, and every visit feels like a win,” Sornson said in a press release today.
“Not only can you expect sports on the screens, but we will also host larger scale viewing parties for events such as UFC and March Madness, along with table-top games, weekend entertainment, and craft shots inspired by our travels in Spain to catch a Real Madrid game,” Houston said.
They’ve been helped with artistic components, including for the concept drawing, by local artist Terrance Howard.
