Former Penn State and NFL linebacker LaVar Arrington is out to prove that there’s life after football. He’s trying to make his mark as a businessman with knowledge he gained from Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder. Lavar’s already been dabbling in the fight game by sponsoring some boxers, and now he’s taking over a bar in the State College area.

From The Daily Collegian Online:

Former NFL and Penn State linebacker LaVar Arrington has applied to take over the liquor license at the Sports Café & Grille at 244 W. College Ave., the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board confirmed yesterday.

An orange piece of paper bearing Arrington’s signature hangs in the window of the bar that has been closed since December.

LaVar Arrington plans to call the bar Linebacker U, after Penn State where he was a two-time All-American. I don’t know if the bar will be a success but hopefully LaVar teams up with Biz Markie again for his marketing campaign.
