The Post Bar is one of those places where it is easy to find a wide mix of people from sports fans to indie rockers and hipsters. Everyone enjoys this laid-back but high-energy bar, supposedly even professional hockey players. Its Web site says, and bar staff confirms, that the Stanley Cup has visited the wild, graffiti-laden bar numerous times. The Detroit Post Bar was the first location of six to open its doors. Other locations are in Dearborn, East Lansing, Novi, Auburn Hills and Ferndale. --Sara Kandel
