It's official, Dungeons and Dragons has gone totally mainstream.

Colorado resident Melissa Garza's Kickstarter project, a "sports bar for geeks," was fully funded just six-and-a-half hours after launch, and ultimately raised a total of $57,772 (it initially asked for only $9,600).

The bar will be called "Dungeons and Drafts" (obviously), and is described as "an old-world, English-style tavern" with more than 30 taps for beers, meads and ciders.

Sample themed cocktails include the "Thyme Lord," "Grain for Ore" and the "Study in Pink," effectively catering to as many nerd fan bases as possible.

Check out the bar's official Twitter account for a goldmine of geeky humor, and its blog for updates and articles, such as one entitled "Confessions of a Cosplay Addict."

With the bar's grand opening set for June 13 in Fort Collins, Colorado, out-of-towners have just three months to finalize travel plans for what's sure to be the party of every geek's dreams.
