Just a reminder that we have DFW Detroit Lions Fan Club beer mugs available. If you order by Wednesday of this week, we will have them for the opener against the Saints. They are $50 each and proceeds go to help fund club projects and events. Any $$$ left over goes to one of our club charities. The big benefit is the discount you receive when you bring the mug into The The Brass Tap - North Dallas on game day. You will get 25 OZ of cold beer at the 16 oz price. That is a savings of $3-$5 a beer. We are working on No Frills Grill & Sports Bar -Mansfield mug deals currently. Stay Tuned!

Please add a name in the notes if you would like it customized, your watch location (Dallas or Mansfield) and add a Cel # or e-mail address to notes in case we have any questions.

Something we can all probably get behind. 🤷

Having fun at The Brass Tap - North Dallas watching our Lions do battle with the Colts. See you week 1. It’s gonna be a packed house.

Who was at this watch party? What a night!!! What a season that was! I will never forget this game.

🦁DFW Detroit Lions Fan Club Mugs are now available to order🦁

This is our first annual DFW Detroit Lions Fan Club Beer Mug fundraiser. We have been excited about this all off-season and can't wait to see what you guys think.

This is a 25 OZ beer mug and VERY STURDY. Trust us, this one is made to last. It's dishwasher and microwave safe. (But if you're putting it in the micro, you've had enough). We've had both sides etched. One with our modified logo and the other shows a little Michigan Pride and the year. These really are nice. Thanks to Maria at Blue Ribbon Awards of Plano who is also a club member, for helping with this.

We took them out this past weekend and tested them out. They did not disappoint. As you can see by the pics, Jay and Joe were not exactly living life to its fullest prior to the MUG arrival. Once they arrived and got filled with a few "barley pops" Things took a fun turn. Coincidence??? Who knows.

We have 2 options with these. You can get them "As Is" or you can have your name added under our logo. We recommend first name or nickname only.

The cost for each mug is $50.00 and will help fund club games, events, BBQ's, etc. Here is the GREAT NEWS. The Brass Tap - North Dallas has offered to help in our fundraising and will fill that beautiful 25 OZ mug for the cost of a 16 OZ beer. That's right...every time you bring your mug in on game day, you will receive 25 OZ beer for the cost of 16 oz. This mug pays for itself by the bye week. Thank you The Brass Tap - North Dallas. Payment option listed below.

Please include “Mug – your full name and "Name" on MUG if personalizing” in the payment note. Your payment reserves your mug. Mugs will be available for pickup at our North Dallas watch parties at The Brass Tap. 2-3 weeks within order date.

Net proceeds, after mug costs, payment fees, taxes and approved club expenses, will benefit a charity selected by the club.

Thanks Everyone....We hope you like these as much as we do.

Pay through Venmo: https://www.venmo.com/u/DFWDetroitlionsfanclub Please add a CEL # or e-mail in case we have any questions on the order.

We also accept cash or check at the bar on game days.

Just want to remind everyone that we meet at the The Brass Tap - North Dallas in Dallas not Richardson. 6959 Arapaho rd just west of Hillcrest in Dallas. Watch party this Saturday at brass tap. See everyone there. Noon game. Go lions 🦁
