Want late USA games on the lawn?
Here’s the deal: White Duck is locking in the USA opener. If we pack the lawn for that one, Nelson’s team is willing to stay open late for the rest of the late USA matches — including USA vs Turkey on Thursday, June 25 (10 PM ET kickoff) and any late knockout night.
But they need to know fans will actually show up before they staff a 1 AM close. Drop your name below so they can plan it. No cover, no commitment to buy — just a head count.
Late USA matches in play:
Why White Duck Is The Spot
The Lawn
Real grass, natural shade, room for a real crowd. Outdoor stadium energy without the stadium prices. The 500-person opening day on this lawn was just a warm-up.
The Tacos
16+ taco varieties, margs, michs, local draft. White Duck’s menu is already built for this. World Cup fans asked for tacos more than any other food in our survey.
Family + Dog Friendly
Kids welcome, dogs welcome, jerseys welcome, vuvuzelas… maybe. The whole crew comes. 19% of our signups are bringing kids.
The Hours
Open at 11 AM — you’re catching morning, afternoon, AND evening kickoffs. Bars that open at 5 PM miss half the tournament. Not here.
