Free Beer Match Day Three: US National Team Edition

We've posted this on Twitter and Facebook, but not yet on the site.. the FBM is going to be hosting their third "Free Beer Match Day" this Saturday at Fado's Irish Pub (214 W. 4th St.) in Austin, TX.

Fado's is one of only 25 (0r so) bars in the ENTIRE United States that is showing the titanic World Cup Qualifier between the Nats and Honduras. The game starts at 9pm, but get their early for seats.

We're asking Free Beer Movers and soccer fans to bring a newbie to the game on Saturday night and introduce them to the sport. Fado's will be rocking for this game so what better way to show off American soccer than with a packed bar full of Nats supporters.

FBM Prez Dan will be there so stop by and get a FREE Free Beer Movement bumper sticker.

Today's The Day...

Today's the day the US National Team takes the field in World Cup Qualification.

Today's the day they face El Salvador in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Today's the day we will miss Mr. Frankie Hejduk.

Today's the day we take three points and move a step closer to booking our tickets to South Africa.

Today's the day that Howard will shine, Landon will lead, goals will be scored, and timely tackles will be made.

Today's the day we sit down with friends and fellow soccer fans and cheer on the home team.

Today's the day we invite someone new to come along and experience the power of a soccer match.

Today's the day they'll get a free cold one to enjoy while watching the sport we so desperately love and the team we'd follow to the ends of the earth (or South Africa!).

Today's the day we ask a non-soccer fan to join our footballing family.

The Free Beer Movement is about spreading the love of American soccer to all corners of the nation and no day is better than today. Today, the pride and joy of our nation's game takes the field in order to continue its push towards the greatest sporting spectacle of all-time, the World Cup.

The past, present, and future of American soccer all take the field today to join in one cause, to win, and to move on to the next level.

It is days like this we, as American soccer fans embrace, as our national team fights for our country's continued respect on the international stage and to stake a claim as the best team in North and Central America.

Games like today are bigger than any game; bigger than any MLS game, and bigger than your son or daughter's kick around in the park.

Our local colors blend. There are no more yellow and black of the Columbus Crew or orange and white of the Houston Dynamo or the black and red of DC United; today there is only RED, WHITE, and BLUE.

These are the days that our nation's best and brightest shine on the field for 90 minutes. For themselves, for soccer, but mostly for you... the American.

These are the days that you have to get up as a soccer fan in America.

So grab you friends, grab those soccer fans, grab those ones you want to become soccer fans, and most importantly grab some really cold beers because today's the day we support our National Team and our national game we love so much.

FBM Match Day Two About to Kick Off!

Just a reminder that the second Free Beer Movement Match Day is just around the corner!

Pre-game beers (free!) will be handed out at the Nomad Bar on 1211 Corona Drive from 5-7pm and then on to Nelson Field as the home side Aztex take on Miama FC Blues in a United Soccer League showdown.

The Blues are coming off a 9-0 thrashing at the hands of the Carolina Railhawks earlier in the week and Austin fell 2-0 to the Montreal Impact last week.

Only one home game left after this one, so come on out!

Free Beer Movement Match Day Two This Saturday!

The Free Beer Movement hosts another "Match Day" this Saturday for the United Soccer League-1 battle between the Austin Aztex and Miami FC Blues.

Any FBM members or interested persons should come to the Nomad Bar (1211 Corona Drive) before the game (remember no beers at the stadium... boo!) and get their free beer from Dan.

The event will kick off about 4pm. Have a few then onto the stadium!

For those NOT in the Austin-area its time to kick off your own "Free Beer Match Days" in your town. Just e-mail us at: freebeermovement@gmail.com and we'll network you with other FBM members in your area.

You can also post your "Match Days" on our Facebook group.

Hope to see you there!
