in our family room in our basement. I am going with a Celtic/retro/sport theme. Too much?? I got the bar from a relative who was getting rid of it. So I said I'll take it. It is about 6 feet long and a cheesey black leather front with the little silver buttons. I love it. Hence the part retro theme. I have several lava lamps going. Love the lava lamps. I started it out as a joke and really just to say I have a bar and here it is. A little cheesy, funny little thing.
You know, let's have a couple of beers place. But I really started getting into it and now it has spiraled somewhat out of control. I am a little obsessed with it.It started in just a corner of the room (first name "The Celtic Corner") but I have started to expand! I have been very sly about it and my wife really didn't notice my expansion...... at first.
Well we had a little gathering one afternoon for a grand opening and I brought people downstairs to have a beer and chuckle
at my bar and to my astonishment they loved it. Oh yeah we had a ribbon cutting ceromony too. It was a big hit. And we didn't have just one beer down there. We stayed there all night long. Everyone was down gathered around the bar and having a great time. I guess people just love to hang out in a pub. 
It's amazing what a 6 foot long piece of board can do.I started with a little fridge and Guinness (my favorite beer!) signs, mirrors, and mugs. I have some Irish plaques with sayings on them like only the Irish can do. I have a few sport pictures too (Huge life long Red Sox fan so a couple of World Series pics)
Now onto the expansion part:
People started to say I needed a big screen tv (we got a great one upstairs) down there and suggested other things. I said for them to keep mentioning that to my wife. Get her on board and ...walla Big Screen TV. We got a little pub table with stool at the other end now too. Now this is not a real big room but I'm fitting things in.
Now I got the guys coming over for Monday Night Football every week and I may be doing a "Retro Party" soon. There WILL be a St. Patty's day event for sure!
Now here's where you and all your Celtic expertise comes in.
This forum is the perfect place for advise!
What else do I need or should I include?? I want more Celtish items.
AND a new name. Name the Pub.
Or should I keep the old name "The Celtic Corner"??
