Ferg’s Story
From Gas Station to St. Pete Staple
What began in 1992 as a Sunoco gas station in St. Petersburg’s “Gas Plant District” is now Ferg’s Sports Bar. Built by Mark Ferguson, a local teacher with a dream of making a place where sports, community, and good times come together.
With event spaces, including a massive backyard that holds up to 3,000 and 100+ TVs, Ferg’s has become a landmark: a sports bar, restaurant, and event venue rolled into one.
