Drink: Free Bud Lite (while it lasts) at Rendezvous on Monday starting at 3:30 p.m. for anyone wearing USA or American Outlaws gear for the U.S. versus Ghana World Cup match (it’s our team opener; please get pumped). American Outlaws are supporters of the U.S. National team, and members will be on hand.
