Fans Saddened by Closure of Popular Bar Next to MLB Stadium
Right next to Oracle Park is a bar called District San Francisco.
For the past 18 years, that place has become a regular spot for fans to come before and after Giants games.
But the owner posted a sad farewell message on the bar's official Instagram page.
"It's with a heavy heart that we say farewell to our San Francisco location...where it all started for District in 2007," the post read. "It was an amazing journey with so many great people along the way. The relationships we built with staff, customers and partners will last forever. But this version of District is history as of Tuesday July 1st. So come on out one last time to the mothership location and help us send her off...Thank you for 18 wonderful years! And don't forget to come see us between now and July 1st to bid farewell to District San Francisco."
Fans were saddened by the news and commented plenty on the post.
"I'm so bummed. Had many fun times there, especially pre and post Giants games," one fan replied. "District SF will be missed. Thanks for the wonderful memories," another said.
"It's the end of an era," another said with a sad emoji face. "We're going to miss you guys! The neighborhood won't be the same without you," stated another.
"Nooo! Living at The Beacon across the street, this place (along with 330 Ritch and 25 Lusk) was my entire social life in the late 2000's!" commented another.
A few others had sad emoji faces and the response of "it's the end of an era."
For those still wanting to go to the District, the company has locations in Oakland and San Jose as well as one at the Oakland Airport.Fans Saddened by Closure of Popular Bar Next to MLB Stadium first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 11, 2025

Kim Jong-kook's fiancee is a cosmetics CEO from LA?
19 Aug - Kim Jong-kook has been generating buzz online with his surprise marriage announcement, but curiosity is rising online about the identity of his bride-to-be, as no personal information about his girlfriend has been released. Speculations are rife on the identity of his fiancee since the revelation, with some netizens claiming that his bride-to-be is a "38-year-old woman from LA who is the CEO of a cosmetics company." Many stated that this has been first revealed by Kim's close friend Cha Tae-hyun on various entertainment shows, albeit jokingly, with the actor commenting about how the singer "goes to LA often." In 2020, a netizen who claimed to be a college student living in LA revealed that they had seen Kim buying coffee with a Korean-American woman there. There are also indications that Kim has been hinting at his wedding preparations on several entertainment programmes recently, including the purchase of an expensive home. The 49-year-old surprised many on 18 August when he suddenly decided to announce that he is getting married. "The wedding will take place sometime soon on a scale that is not too big with family, close friends, and a few acquaintances. Thanks to the fans who have been my greatest strength for such a long time, I am getting married and taking on a new challenge in life again."

Jerry Jones Claims He Received Death Threats When He Bought the Dallas Cowboys and Fired Coach Tom Landry
NEED TO KNOW Jerry Jones claimed that he received multiple death threats shortly after he bought the Dallas Cowboys in 1989 In the new Netflix docuseries America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys, the owner looks back on what happened after he fired legendary coach Tom Landry Jones hired his longtime friend and former teammate Jimmy Johnson as Landry's successor When Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys in February 1989 and then fired legendary head coach Tom Landry, virtually no one in the franchise's fandom was happy with the Arkansas oil man. Then, he installed himself as president and general manager — an unheard of move in the NFL — riling even more of the team's supporters. But none of his decisions in the early days of owning America's Team had prepared him for the extreme criticism from Cowboys Nation. 'I was Darth Vader,' Jones, 82, recalls in the new Netflix docuseries America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys. Jones told Arkansas state lawmakers at the time that he had received multiple death threats. 'They're serious about their football in the state of Texas, almost as much as we are in Arkansas,' he says in the doc. After Landry's firing, more than 100,000 people turned out for a parade through the streets of downtown Dallas to honor the Cowboys coach of 29 years. 'Jerry and the Jones family had broken into the museum and taken our most valuable possession,' former ABC affiliate WFAA-TV sportscaster Dale Hansen says in the doc, describing the affection fans had for the former coach. Looking back, even Jones confesses it may have been a rash decision to fire Landry — whose team notched a 3-13 record during his final season in 1988. 'The firing of Coach Landry was certainly one of the great PR missteps, maybe of all time,' Jones says. 'Because I still wear that.' At a press conference later termed the Saturday Night Massacre — a reference to the Watergate scandal — Jones announced his intentions with the team. One day later, he fired Landry and named longtime friend and fellow University of Arkansas teammate Jimmy Johnson as the new coach of the Cowboys. Charlotte Jones Anderson, Jones' daughter and the team's executive vice president and chief brand officer, recalls thinking after the press conference, "What do we do?' Jones says he had no choice but to forge ahead. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. His team in Dallas — nicknamed the City of Hate due to President John F. Kennedy's 1963 assassination — was coming together, and that's when Jones truly laid it all on the line, he says. 'With all that hate, I could stop and cry or I could just keep going,' Jones says. 'But I'm not gonna take my marbles and go home. I can't, I burned all my ships when I landed."

Yoel Romero gets date, opponent for BKFC debut
Yoel Romero has inked his bareknuckle boxing debut. The former UFC title challenger is set to make his first appearance for BKFC against Theo Doukas at BKFC 80 on Sept. 12 at Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Fla. The bout will be contested at heavyweight. The news of Romero's debut was announced by the promotion on Tuesday. Romero, 48, signed with BKFC in July. He was coming off two KO finishes competing in Mike Perry's Dirty Boxing Championship – which is a striking competition with small gloves but doesn't involve any grappling or groundwork. "The Soldier of God" is mainly known for his 10-year run in the UFC where he fought for the middleweight title multiple times and cemented himself as one of the world's best. After his UFC departure, Romero had a short stint with Bellator and PFL, going 3-2. Although now competing in bareknuckle boxing, Romero told MMA Junkie last month that he's still looking to continue his MMA career. Romero's opponent, Doukas, will also be making his BKFC debut. Doukas has competed four times in MMA, going 2-2. His two victories have come by way of stoppage. He last competed in MMA in April 2024 and was submitted in the second round. He's also 1-0 in boxing.
