A Statement Regarding Changes To The Beer Garden

Guardians,

At last night's FC Dallas Supporters' Forum it was revealed that the Budweiser Beer Garden at Toyota Stadium, our group's home since 2011, will no longer have a minimum age limit.

It has been conveyed to the supporters' groups by Gina McFarlin, Director of Safety & Security, as well as representatives of multiple departments of the FC Dallas front office that the Budweiser Beer Garden will continue to be considered a supporters' section with all the expectations for the environment a supporters' section fosters. It was expressly noted that the supporters' groups are encouraged to not change what we do to support our team.

FC Dallas supporters with any concerns regarding this change can address those with Joe Bellow, the designated supporters' group liaison for FC Dallas. You can contact him at jbellow@fcdallas.net.

We, Dallas Beer Guardians leadership, understand that there are strong opinions on both sides of this matter, however this does not detract from our overall aim to support FC Dallas in the season ahead. We look forward to seeing you tonight and for every match as we continue to give the team our all!

Sanguinem Sudorem et Cervisiae,

DBG Leadership
