What's not to love about a good sports bar? You get to hang out with friends and have better seats and food than you would if you were actually at the game. The lively social scene in Fort Myers includes several fine sports bars that are fun to visit even if there is no game on. We've made a list of four of the most popular locations for you to check out. One of them is bound to become your favorite!

1. Lee Roy Selmon's
5056 Daniels Parkway
Fort Myers 33912

This restaurant's namesake was the first member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to enter the NFL Hall of Fame. The menu is based on the delicious Southern dishes Lee Roy's mother prepared back home in Oklahoma. Enjoy classics like fried green tomatoes, Mama's meatloaf and the Selmon Brothers' wings grilled with their special Oklahoma sauce. The recipe is posted online so you can make a batch for your own tailgating parties. Order one of the draft beers in a 50 oz. or 100 oz. beer tube if you dare!

With a name like Miller's Ale House, you know you're bound to find the casual, welcoming atmosphere of a neighborhood bar. Their mission is summed up in the slogan, "A Reel Great Place to Catch a Good Time!" The full-service bar carries more than 75 brands of bottled and draft beers, with everyday specials on favorites like Guinness, Budweiser and Dos Equis. Settle in with a pint and a plate of their signature "Zinger" boneless chicken wings and watch the game on one of the many HDTVs.
