When word spreads that Tiger Woods and Justin Timberlake are launching a sports bar, fans laugh at the same joke.
The announcement that Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods are planning to open an upscale sports club in St Andrews, Scotland, has been met with expected derision on social media.
Last month, Timberlake, 43, was taken into custody for DWI in the Hamptons. In order to resolve a charge of driving while intoxicated, Woods, 48, entered a diversion program and entered a guilty plea to reckless driving in 2017.
The two opened Manhattan, New York’s T-Squared Social sports bar last year.
The company’s latest endeavor will involve renovating the New Picture House Cinema in St Andrews. Modern sports simulators, darts, and duckpin bowling are all planned additions, while the venue’s two original movie screens will be preserved.
“These guys??” a second person questioned, holding up pictures of each of their police mug photographs.
Indeed. A third, not so subtly sarcastic, remarked, “It seems like a very safe decision for them both to own a bar.”
One fourth wrote, “Sponsored by UBER,” referring to the ride-hailing service.
“The Bar of DUive?” laughed a sixth time.
The development has been approved by Fife Council, who state that they anticipate 40 to 45 new jobs to be created and a considerable boost to the local economy from the renovations. The proposals are expected to be “crucial in helping to secure a cinema offering going forward” and will give the community “a wider range of cinema, dining and entertainment,” according to the approved paperwork.
Timberlake mentioned his arrest for suspected drunk driving earlier this week during a Boston tour stop.
At the city’s TD Garden, the artist was entertaining as a part of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour.
“So, um, is there anyone driving here tonight?” “No, I’m not serious,” he added, seemingly alluding to his detention on June 17 in Sag.
“On a serious note, I hope that everyone who is here for the first time feels the love and camaraderie. For those of you who have stuck by me through all the strange hairstyles—don’t pretend like you never had awful haircuts! I grabbed one for the group. For the team, perhaps three or four, but who’s counting? You folks have been together for nearly thirty years, nevertheless.
