Pregame with The 7 Line Army at the Duce in Arizona

by Darren Meenan May 30, 2018 0 Comments

We're hitting Arizona on Saturday June 16th with 1,200 Mets fans. This will be our 87th MLB outing and 17th different ballpark with the crew. As always, we worked out a pregame party for the squad. It's a billion degrees in Phoenix, so we'll be inside for this one.

The spot is called The Duce, and I worked out some deals with Jake from their management staff. Jake is a Cubs fan, but that doesn't make him a bad person. He did curse at me on the phone about the 2015 playoffs though. SWEEP! Sorry.

Anyway, The Duce! The game is at 7:10pm, and the doors to The Duce open at 11am. We should roll through no later than 3pm. It's always good for us to get there early to secure spots before the locals show up. We're respectful of course, but wherever we go always turns in to a Mets bar for the day. Believe me, the bartenders don't mind. Don't forget to tip them!

THE DUCE

525 S Central Ave

Phoenix, AZ 85004

SPECIALS:

$10 "7 Line Lemonade" (Vodka lemonade)

$3 old school beers (PBR, Hamms, Old Style, Schlitz, Miller-High Life, Budweiser)

$4 craft bottles (IPA, Urban Wheat Ale)

In order to take part in the specials, you gotta wear your special RALLY IN THE VALLEY event t-shirt. So don't forget it.

The Duce also has an extensive food menu filled with apps, sliders, and old school favorites. Show up hungry and fill up before we head over to the game. You may have seen them on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

For whatever reason, there's a boxing ring at the bar we're pre-gaming at in Phoenix. @theducephx @The7LineArmy pic.twitter.com/IR1wYFv3Ry

Chase Field is about 5 blocks from The Duce. Odds are it'll be sweltering hot, but we'll parade over to the ballpark at around 6:10. This should leave us enough time to get in to the park and to our seats by the national anthem. At least the ballpark is air conditioned. LISTEN UP FOR ANNOUNCEMENTS. I'll probably grab the mic to keep everyone in the loop as the party unfolds. It's always tough to try to top the walk over in San Diego, but let's try.

Special thanks to The Duce for hosting us. Really looking forward to this one!
