New Sports Bar "Legion" Opening In Bellevue

[AROS]

My daughter sent me a text while on vacation showing a Twitter feed about Kam and Sherm opening up a new sports bar in Bellevue, WA called "Legion". Damn, I can see the line outside already.

I’ll definitely make an effort to try and get up and there check it out.

Hope they succeed, the restaurant and bar business is one of the toughest to make it in. Great location though, I'll have to stop in the next time I'm on the westside when hell freezes over.

Wonder if its next to the Hyatt, teams stay there religiously.

We already talked about this a bit but I don’t remember where. (Thread)

At any rate, my wife was telling me that’s she’s heard/seen lots of grumblings on social media that it’s a bit upscale and “pricey”. Evidently some folks want a cheap way to support their Seahawk players private endeavors?

Doesn’t Sherm own several “wing” places in the area?

Personally I don’t mind paying more for good quality but I understand not everyone has the means.
Still the same, why bitch and complain because someone opened an establishment that you can’t afford?
I don’t get it.

Sports figures have been opening higher end restaurants and bars for years, it’s not something new.

I'm visiting Seattle the first week of September, I wonder if it'll already be open or not by then. Guessing probably not.
