The Eagle Food & Beer Hall will be the place to watch the Run for the Roses, with Derby Day activations at The Columbus Eagle location in the Short North Arts District (790 N. High St, Columbus, OH 43215). Locations will feature a DJ to keep the energy high from first post to final furlong, and guests can enter to win "Free Eagle for a Year" — a $50 monthly gift card credit automatically reloaded for 12 months. Additional gift card prizes will also be awarded.
Guests can pick up an entry card at the restaurant and fill in their name, email, and Instagram handle, then drop it in the entry bucket. Winners will be drawn randomly and announced on social media the following day. For the "Free for a Year" prizes, the $50 monthly credit will be loaded onto a single physical gift card on the first of each month. Balances expire at month's end and do not roll over.
"May is one of our favorite months," said John Lanni, co-founder of Thunderdome Restaurant Group. "The Derby is basically a holiday for us. We want guests to come celebrate at The Eagle on Saturday."
