To keep the fans cool, the Dickey's team provided free water and sausage samples to guests while they patiently waited to meet the Maverick’s star who stayed until every guest in line was taken care of. Dickey’s outside bar was the perfect setting for fans to unwind, socialize and responsibly sample The Dickey Foundation and Panther Island Brewery’s signature Legit. Texas. Lager. Additional partnering vendors at the event were Red Bull, Sazerac, and Modelo.
