Cupid is Stupid Car Smashing
Feb 13 @ 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Hi-Wire Brewing

2020 broke all of our hearts. Come channel that rage into a good cause at our second-annual Cupid is Stupid Car Smashing on Saturday, Feb. 13 from 3-6pm in our Big Top taproom’s parking lot. You get 5 hits for $5 or 15 hits for $10 with your choice of bludgeoning device from our arsenal. All proceeds from the event will be split between the USBG National Charity Foundation and the North Carolina Restaurant Workers Relief Fund. So come out, play your favorite angry song, and get to swinging. You know you need this after the past year we’ve had.
If you want to have a whack at it, sign-ups must be done in person during the event at the check-in table outside. Time slots will be first come first served. Protective eyewear will be provided and sanitized between each use. Participants must wear protective gloves, so feel free to bring your own, but we will have heavy-duty gloves to use as well as disposable rubber gloves to wear under them. Social distancing and COVID-19 safety measures must be followed at all times. We recommend getting a table or reserving an igloo while you wait for your turn.
