FORT COLLINS, Colo. – CSU’s 2011 football opener is only five weeks away. The team has made its plans, as the charter flight to Albuquerque, hotel rooms and buses are reserved. Now, it’s time for fans to make their plans to watch the game here in town.
Fans are encouraged to watch that Sept. 3 opener, and every CSU game away from Fort Collins, at Taps Sports Bar and Grill. That’s because not only is the venue the official watch party location of the Rams, but Taps also will donate 10 percent of all net revenue from all food and beverage sales to CSU’s Athletic General Scholarship Fund.
In other words, fans that cheer on the Rams at Taps, located at 165 Boardwalk Drive in Fort Collins, help fund student-athlete scholarships at the same time.
"We are very excited about this year’s season and our new partnership with CSU football,” said Taps owner Mark Spring. “We are looking forward to this great opportunity. Being an alum and an avid Ram fan myself makes this a perfect match for a winning season."
Taps, known for its outstanding selection of beer, is open daily at 11 a.m., with happy hour from 3-6 p.m. each day, and 10 p.m. to 12 a.m. Sunday through Thursday.
