Event Information

A BRAND NEW, WORLD FAMOUS ST. PATRICK'S DAY TRADITION IS BORN!

For the first time in recorded human history, a group of likeminded, educated, and extremely good looking individuals will gather to determine what is, in fact, the world's best french fry.

The French Fry Showdown isn't just an excuse to eat & drink & be merry. On the contrary. You are coming to this event to make the case that your favorite french fry is the world's best french fry.

The Voting Process

This isn't a Democracy, but your voice still matters (sound familiar?)

Our distinguished Judges will be making their way through the event to interview guests. That means you. You're there to make the case for your favorite fry. Come prepared to ride or die for your fry.

At the end of the night, these distinguished judges will consider the arguments, deliberate, and then issue a ruling on the best french fry.

Their ruling cannot be appealed. It is final and binding.

The Jameson Irish Whiskey Bar

We've partnered with our friends at Jameson Irish Whiskey to make this a proper St. Patrick's Day event and will be hosting an open bar featuring some delightful Whiskey drinks:

Lucky Root: Our brand new canned Whiskey Root Beer

Minty MockRock: A minty, vanilla Irish slushie

Harvard J Wallbanger: What if an orange creamsicle were Irish? Take a sip and find out.

Nickle Pickle Backs: A can of Donna's Pickle Beer & Shot of Jameson Irish Whiskey

Non-Alcoholic Pi Day: It's not lost on us that this event is on 3.14, so we're serving up a mocktail inspired by apple pie which is, admittedly, not very Irish. But if you want to make it Irish, we can add Jameson Irish Whiskey.
