The Return of The LA Rams at Stag Party for Charity
08.01.16
The Stag Bar + Kitchen in Newport Beach invites you to help celebrate the return of the Rams with a welcome back Rams party and charity fundraiser on Tuesday, August 2 from 5:30 to 8 p.m.
Special guests at the event include former Los Angeles Rams players, including defensive back LeRoy Irving (1980-1989) who holds the record for most punt return yards in a single game (207), and barefoot placekicker Mike Lansford (1982-1990), who led the league with 51 extra point.
Irving will be the evening’s guest bartender, serving up featured drinks including the Horns Up Ram-a-rita, of which 100% of sales will benefit local charity, Give Cancer the Bird! All food sales will also be donated to the charity. In addition to the former players, former Rams cheerleaders will also be in attendance.
The free, open-to-the-public event will feature an opportunity raffle with an assortment of Rams memorabilia, including signed items and other prizes up for grabs. Raffle tickets run $20 each or 6 for $100. One hundred percent of proceeds raised from the raffle will benefit Give Cancer the Bird!
Guests who arrive early will receive a special bonus; the first 50 people who purchase a Horns Up featured Rams cocktail will receive a free limited edition Rams/Stag Bar commemorative hat.
Stag Bar + Kitchen is at 121 McFadden Place in Newport Beach. 949.673.4470 or visit stagbar.com
