The Post and Courier states, "When the Gamecocks and the Tigers kick off their football seasons this [fall], it will trigger the beginning of more than $120 million in combined economic activity from the seven home games each school has scheduled." While South Carolina remains a top tourist destination for its beaches, culture, history and cuisine, many predict that the current football season will have a considerable impact on local business.

As a bar that serves a vast selection of patrons ranging from college students to tourists, Market Street Saloon believes that South Carolina football has some of the most incredible fans who love to celebrate victory. The Post and Courier notes how such cultural tradition can reap notable rewards for the local business community.

The article states, "Heading into the 2013 season, experts who track college football economics say South Carolina is on the verge of its most profitable year ever in terms of a statewide financial windfall tied to football Saturdays. With its two flagship schools ranked in the pre-season Top 10, South Carolina will be challenging perennial states like Florida and Alabama for dual-program profile, generating more alumni interest, drawing traveling fans from other schools and seeing an overall upswing in activity. And that means millions of dollars are expected to be pumped into bars, eateries and fan stores from the mountains to the coast."

In a recent press statement, Market Street Saloon comments, "We are excited to serve local and visiting South Carolina football fans. While many may come to Charleston and local areas to watch the games, we believe that our lively Lowcountry culture, beautiful saloon girls and nightly drink specials are what show tourists what southern hospitality is truly all about." Located in the historic Market Street area, Market Street Saloon welcomes locals and visitors alike to take part in its fun, nightly events and drink specials for a one-of-a-kind nightlife experience.
