**War of the Roses: Southern Ladies Arm Wrestling**
 **February 14 at 8pm**
 **Free Range Brewing**

LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLEEEEEE! Next Friday, the Southern Ladies Arm Wrestling League (SLAW) is coming to a brewery near you (as long as that brewery is Free Range Brewery) for an explosive night of bombastic bicep action! Valentine’s Day 2020 will forever be remembered for the War of the Roses, where 64 powerful female/femme-identifying individuals will throw down in an arm-wrestling tournament of the ages. In the words of SLAW, “This Valentine’s Day, [they] aren’t just breaking hearts.”

Come cheer on these fierce competitors and enjoy the release of Free Range Brewing’s “Petal to the Mettle” pale ale. Or … compete! There are still a few competitor spots left and we can’t think of a better way to spend a gal’s night out than laying the smackdown with a group of laudable ladies. [Register to compete or get your tickets to cheer on the carnation carnage here.](https://slaw.ticketleap.com/war-of-the-roses/details)
