The Sandbar

Bryan has the bar open for USA vs. Australia today at 2 pm! ⚽️

Let’s get this weekend started early!

This weekend!

🧡 We are so excited to announce these new shirts! 🧡

We've been talking with our pals at Lawrence Humane Society for a long time about a shirt collab- and with LHS celebrating their 75th anniversary this year, it's the perfect time!

Introducing...the iconic "Hangin' With Hootie" shirts!! These salmon-colored Comfort Color pocket tees feature a very popular Lawrence Humane alum named Hootie hangin' at the beach with a Shark Attack in hand! Plus, a bonus "pocket pitty" dressed in a shark costume on the pocket.

Hootie was a beloved mastiff who loved attending The Sandbar to watch Chiefs games, walk around on KU campus, and help out Lawrence Humane staff with tabling events! Hootie found himself at the shelter in 2022 after his loving owner passed away. Elina, the chief development officer at LHS, immediately fell in love with his big ol' googly eyes and gentle personality. She and her husband took very good care of him and eventually ended up adopting him! It is in his honor we celebrate two of life’s greatest things: giant dogs and local bars that welcome them with open arms!

All proceeds support the animals at Lawrence Humane Society.

Get yours today at The Sandbar, or you can get them from Lawrence Humane Society's retail shop at the shelter or their online store: https://lawrencehumane.org/shop

Congrats to Donivan!

Donivan started working at the door at Sandbar when he first came to KU as a freshman, and you may not know that he also helped wrangle the Bar Band members this past year! (Did you know that Bar Band started right here 30 some years ago?!)

Donivan graduated with degrees in political science and journalism, and he's headed to Drake University's law school in the fall.

Fun fact: Donivan's parents met at the Sandbar while attending KU in the 90's (are you noticing a pattern here?)! His dad Jeff was in law school and his mom Michele was majoring in music education. They spent many fun nights here!

Congrats Donivan!
