Ready for some fútbol, Miami? Here are bars offering drink specials for Copa America
Who’s ready for some fútbol?
Because it’s Copa America time.
Starting Friday, with an opening match at 8:30 p.m. between Brazil and Bolivia, soccer teams from countries throughout South America, Japan and Qatar will go head-to-head for the chance to win the 2019 series.
The Copa America, held in Brazil through July 7, is the oldest football competition of national teams in the world. Its first official game was held in the summer of 1916, partly to commemorate the centennial of Argentina’s independence.
We found a few local places where you can watch the action — and get some deals in the process.
As long as a game is on, the specials are available. That’s what we call a win-win, aka GOLLLLL-AZO!!!
Veza Sur Brewing Co.
Games will be broadcast at this Latin inspired pub on a giant projector screen while offering cerveza specials, including $2 Chopp (pronounced shoh-pee) to all fans wearing soccer jerseys. This Wynwood hotspot will also release a newbie for the occasion: El Otro Diez 10, a pineapple witbier. Chi-fa food truck will be on site as well.
