Not all of these watch bars are exclusively L.A. Clippers sports bars, but they do tend to attract lots of Clippers fans on game day.

Sometimes fans migrate to other bars, sometimes bars close, and sometimes they are booked for special events. Always call ahead to make sure that the game you want to watch will be broadcast at the bar
