BAR HAPPY HOUR COUNTDOWN
A bar TV board with a live countdown to happy hour and a rotating ticker of drink specials in split-flap style. The countdown flips down to the 5pm start while specials like $9 spritzes, $6 drafts, and $4 tacos cycle underneath, with a 21+ reminder in the footer. The ticking flaps give regulars a reason to stay for one more round.

How do I set the countdown to our happy hour time?
Open the countdown widget after forking and set your own target date and time — the default counts to 5pm. You can show or hide seconds, change the "starts" label, and pick the flap color, so the countdown matches how your bar builds anticipation.
Can the board flip to a different look once happy hour starts?
Yes. Keep this countdown scene for the afternoon and add a second scene with happy-hour pricing, then a late-night scene that surfaces the "last call 1:30" message. Scenes rotate on their own durations, so the board follows the night without staff touching it.
What do I plug into the TV above the bar?
Nothing new, usually. Any TV browser runs the board — Chromecast, Fire TV, Apple TV, or a smart TV — so the screen that shows the game on Sunday shows the countdown on Monday. Open the board URL and the flaps start ticking at 60 FPS.
Is there a cost for a bar to use this template?
Forking and setting up the countdown and specials ticker is free. Once it plays live on your bar TV you need a plan starting at $8/mo — one well-timed $9 spritz order a week covers it.
