Fans of the Seattle Storm and the Reign FC are loyal, loud, and love their respective teams. But it can be difficult to find a bar showing those teams on the big screen, especially when the Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders, or Kraken are playing. Fans of Seattle’s professional women’s teams say it’s frustrating. For Jen Barnes, it hit home in 2021 when she tried to find a bar showing the Reign playing in the league semi-finals with no luck. She took matters into her own hands and decided to open her own place. Now, Rough & Tumble is filled with TV monitors, and women’s sports always takes first priority! As Drew Highlands explains, it’s a huge victory for inclusion and fun!
