The next wave of sports-themed businesses

Why are there so many business in America that don’t have anything to do with sports?

I think it was Homer Simpson who said, “sports sports sports sports sports sports sports sports.” American guys are crazy about sports, that’s for sure!

That’s why the “just for men” barbershop SportClips has been so wildly successful. What’s there not to love about tuning into Sportscenter during the one hour of your month that you’re not nearby a computer or television? And just between us guys, there’s nothin’ wrong with a little eye candy while we get our haircuts, am I right fellas?

/nudges you so hard I break your rib

Just take a look at all the benefits to getting your haircut at a place where there’s sports:

It’s no wonder that SportClips has the American man by the short and curlies, but what about all the other businesses that are failing to capitalize on the hard-earned dollar of the average joe six-pack? There are literally dozens of minutes everyday where I’m forced to do things without incorporating sports and no one can give me a good reason why. Fortunately, I’ve submitted patent applications for all the following business models, places where guys can be guys and contribute to our nation’s sports economy.

Purchase a ticket to the SportPort and make all of your wildest dreams come true. All of our aircraft land through goalposts and giant basketball hoops so you can really score while you soar!
