PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — The mullet of bars, “classy” in the front and “nerdy” in the back, is coming to Vancouver.
Silver Ball Social Club is opening its doors on 114 E. Evergreen Blvd on Saturday, July 19. The venture comes from Todd Stryker and Chad White, who met through Vancouver’s local gaming scene.

The business partners have brought their affinity for gaming to the new space, which features skee-ball and 35 pinball machines. While the bar is only open to guests over 21, its co-owners hope it brings out the inner child in all of its visitors.
“We wanted it to be a place where pinball aficionados might come from all around,” Stryker said. “But then simultaneously for Vancouver, which has really been kind of coming into its own in the last few years with our waterfront and a lot of that, but to have kind of a destination entertainment place — both locally and for other people to put us on the map.”
