41 Underrated College Towns with Epic Sports Bars You Have to Visit

29. Morgantown, West Virginia (Mario’s Fishbowl, Kegler’s Sports Bar)

West Virginia University takes its sports seriously, and Morgantown turns into an absolute madhouse on game days. No bar in town embodies that raw, unfiltered Mountaineer pride quite like Mario’s Fishbowl. This historic dive bar, which has been serving up its famous "fishbowl" beers for decades, is a rite of passage for WVU students, alumni, and sports fans alike. The oversized goblets of beer are just part of what makes this place legendary—the award-winning wings, covered in a variety of sauces, are the perfect fuel for an afternoon of cheering (or screaming at the TV). The walls are covered with handwritten notes and signatures from past visitors, giving Mario’s an unmistakable personality that makes every visit feel like a trip back in time. If you want a more classic sports bar setting, Kegler’s Sports Bar is the go-to spot for catching every play on massive flat screens while devouring some of the best wings in West Virginia. The menu features classic pub grub, but the wings are the real MVP, consistently ranking among the best in the state. With its die-hard Mountaineer fanbase, endless beer selection, and unbeatable wings, Kegler’s is the perfect place to experience WVU game days in full force.
