There aren't a ton of sports bars downtown, but all that might change with the opening of Aces Ballpark for the Reno Aces inaugural season.

Doc Hollidays may become the de facto Aces bar, mostly because it is right there. On Friday, during the 24 hours of the Aces opening game, they're offering $2 pints, though we can't imagine they'll need it to attract business. But they're not the only game in town. Here are other close spots that may reap benefits from the Aces.

Are there other spots close to the park that we've missed?

Doc Hollidays

120 E. Second St. - Reno

775-348-8460

The 24/7 bar is right down Second Street from the stadium, basically the first place you find when heading downtown. For each home game, grab pints for $2 a piece.

Santa Fe Hotel Restaurant

235 Lake St. - Reno

775-323-1891

The nearby restaurant on Lake Street, in the shadow of Harrah's, is already getting reservations for pre-game Basque dinners, but they've also got a great bar to chill at before a game.

The Lincoln Lounge

303 E. Fourth St. - Reno

775-323-5426

This speakeasy-style bar is right across from Davidson's. It's got a swank shuffleboard table and patio. For opening week they're serving sausages and have beer specials.

Davidson's Distillery

275 East Fourth St. - Reno

775-324-1917

Heading up Lake or Evans will take you right to this biker bar. After many weekend games, you're likely to find a show.

Men's Club

270 N Lake St. - Reno

775-786-7800

The strip club is just up Lake Street, with a restaurant and sushi bar.

Nugget Diner

233 N. Virginia St. - Reno

775-323-0716

Open 24 hours, you can get an Awful Awful (oh, right, and all the other good stuff they serve) before, after or way after a game.

Tonic Lounge

231 W. Second St. - Reno

775-337-6868

Over on Second street, most weekend nights will have concerts after Aces games finish.

3rd Street

125 W. Third St. - Reno

775-323-5005

Near the Eldorado's garage, the bar often has live music or other entertainment.

Silver Peak Grill and Tap Room

135 N. Sierra St. - Reno

775-284-3300

Food and brews served late into the night.

Brew Brothers at the Eldorado

345 N. Virginia St. - Reno

775-786-5700

The music bar inside the Eldorado has game-day deals for Aces ticket holders: 2-for-1 Coors Light bottles.

Se7en on West (Seven)

148 West St. - Reno

775-284-3363

The bar is open in the West Street Market and often hosts shows on the weekend.

West Street Wine Bar

148 West St. - Reno

775-336-3650

The wine bar is also in the West Street Market.

Ceol Irish Pub

538 S. Virginia St. - Reno

775-329-5558

The closest place to get your Irish on.

Amendment 21 Grill & Sports Bar

425 S. Virginia St. - Reno

775-786-0808

Amendment 21 runs a shuttle to games and operates the A21 Bud Light Bullpen at the corner of Second and Lake streets, where you can park your car or bike and get drinks before the games.

Scruples Bar and Grill

91 W. Plumb Lane - Reno

775-322-7171

Scruples also does ticket giveaways for Aces games and offers a shuttle to and from the games.
