Hines Wards' South Side Bar To Be Auctioned Off

PITTSBURGH (AP) ― A Pittsburgh sports bar co-owned by Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward is to be auctioned this month in federal bankruptcy court.

The Locker Room Bar & Grille will go on the block on May 23.

An attorney for the bar says Hines will buy it for $900,000 if no one bids more than $920,000.

The lawyer says Ward's bid is an opportunity for others to bid for a business in a prime location on the city's South Side.

The legal battle over the bar's finances began in September when a co-owner filed a lawsuit accusing Ward and a third owner of draining accounts.

Ward and the third owner denied any wrongdoing.

U.S. Bankruptcy Court has assumed jurisdiction over the case.
