Out of the 11 U.S. cities that hosted the World Cup<\/a> this year, Miami, Los Angeles and New York City were among the most recognizable to international football fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n But that\u2019s not where they all flocked to cheer on their home teams.\u00a0<\/p>\n A recent report from Lyft<\/a> ranked the top 10 most-visited bars in the U.S. during the World Cup, and Happiest Hour in Dallas was No. 6 on the list. <\/p>\n Here\u2019s where Happiest Hour<\/a> stacked up against other favored bars across the nation:<\/p>\n Number Thirty Eight<\/a> in Denver, CO This timeline of this report includes Team USA\u2019s push through Group D and Mexico\u2019s streak into the top 16, but we can assume that these stats were somewhat consistent through to the finals.\u00a0<\/p>\n Before the World Cup made its debut in Dallas, Happiest Hour had already been the go-to bar in Uptown for sporting events.\u00a0<\/p>\n Across its massive 20,000 square-foot space, it houses over 40 TVs, a rooftop with views of Uptown and Downtown, ample tables to accommodate larger groups, and a sprawling rooftop deck.\u00a0<\/p>\n It even has two sections of the menu dedicated to \u2018team happytizers\u2019 and \u2018team cocktails\u2019 that can serve at least four people. The respective menus include a ferris wheel of wings, XL loaded cheddar fries, a nacho tower, beer towers and cocktail flights.<\/p>\n As big as the World Cup got in Dallas, Happiest Hour had all the right ingredients for fans: location, menu, space, free valet and energy. If you wanted your night to go big, Happiest Hour was able to meet you there.<\/p>\n Fans said, \u201cgo big or go home,\u201d and Happiest Hour responded with, \u201cbet.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Team Mexico fans packed the sports bar Happiest Hour on Thursday for the first game of the 2026…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":382302,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,104,103,65188],"class_list":["post-382301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-news","tag-quest-for-the-cup"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/382301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=382301"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/382301\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/382302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=382301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=382301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=382301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
