Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you The Red Pegasus Podcast's sixth guest!
Throughout our series of guests, we welcome Preston Osborn to the show. Preston was born and raised in Dallas, attended SMU to study law and has remained here ever since. He is a soccer fanatic and a beer connoisseur, so he decided, why not start a business surrounding it all?
Crossbar Soccer + Beer was founded and established in the height of the pandemic. Ever since it has come into fruition, it has been a destination for beer and soccer lovers, but beyond that, people that simply enjoy a good time. Crossbar has plenty of ways to kickback or kick around. Every weeknight and weekend you can break a sweat in a 5v5 open pickup soccer match. Make a team to run the table in our Women’s, Men’s, and Coed indoor leagues, or show off your skills in a FIFA tournament. Grab a beer with some friends or make some new ones - all games (or even Ted Lasso) will be streamed on our TV and projector screens in real time.
Throughout episode 52, Preston and the guys discuss what it's like to start your own business today in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. He explains the history of Crossbar and how it started as an idea and birthed into a thriving soccer destination. This is only the beginning though, there are big plans in store, so make sure you follow along and check it all out for yourself.
Then, the guys chat about the underrated craft beer scene that the DFW area possess. Preston confidently compares it to places like Denver and Seattle and says Dallas truly can have its own pedestal. With Crossbar carrying over 50+ beers, Preston sure has a solid stance on good beer and it is affirmed throughout the conversation.
Speaking of stories, Preston shares about a trip he took to England where he got to see his favorite team, Liverpool play live. Also, while there, he had the joy and pleasure of seeing the head coach, Jürgen Klopp. When people say soccer is nearly a religion in the United Kingdom, they aren't joking.
It's an episode you will not want to miss. Preston is an incredible human doing numerous, incredible things within the vast North Texas soccer community.
