Bardog 6th Anniversary Party and Breakaway 5K: Win Entry Tickets!

Bardog 6th Anniversary Party and Breakaway 5K: Win Entry Tickets!

The annual Bardog Anniversary Alley Party is back this Sunday. It's time to celebrate six years of sliders, daily dogs, cold brews and brunch specials at Bardog on Monroe downtown. It's also the 5th anniversary of the Breakaway Bardog 5K, one of Memphis' most popular races, and I'm giving away two entry tickets to the race. Read on to find out how to enter.

Every year since 2008, Bardog Tavern has hosted an anniversary blowout, with all proceeds benefitting St. Jude. They've raised about $70,000 in the last six years. Wow.

This year they're going even bigger by blocking off Monroe and turning the vicinity into a street festival with food, drinks, music by Bluff City Backsliders, Amurica Photo Booth, dunk tank, and street vendors with local artists and business owners. 

Here is my proposed itinerary for you for this coming Sunday: 
1. wake up, head downtown, and run the Bardog 5K
2. hang around for beer, sliders, and all the fun and new vendors at the alley party and festival
3. head over to Wiseacre on Broad to the I Love Memphis birthday party around 2 p.m. for cake and more beer.

Sounds pretty good to me!

The 5K starts at 9 a.m. at Bardog. For a $35 registration fee (buy here) runners get race entry, shirt, bag o' swag, three beer tickets, free sliders, and more.

If you want a chance for you and a friend to enter the race for free ($70 value) all you need to do is leave me a comment on this post telling me your favorite slider from Bardog (or Slider Inn). I'll do a random drawing tomorrow at 11:30 a.m.

Go there:

The Buffalo chicken slider is my favorite from Slider Inn. At Bardog, I love the breakfast slider.

Chicken Salad slider at Slider Inn is great. It may be because it's offered once a week as all are fantastic but my favorite it is.

I'd love to win, but I've actually never been to the restaurant before!  I love all sliders equally though ;)

1.  I have yet to meet a slider I don't love, BUT the buffalo chicken slider has a special place in my stomach and heart.  2.  If I don't win the free entry I might cry.  3.  I will see you at the wiseacre birthday party!!

My favorite thing at BarDog is the Vegetarian Burrito with the BEST french fries around. But the best slider is the Low Rider.... YUMMY!!!!

My favorite slider from Slider Inn is the LowRider. The sandwich is extremely tasty but is brought together by the caramelized onions and avocado. What more could one ask for.

On behalf of fat kids everywhere, I say The best slider is the Big Deuce at Slider Inn. There is something amazing about a double bacon cheeseburger slider. The rest of the world would have us believe sliders are supposed to be a snack. The Big Deuce is like a giant fatty fist of love in your mouth. Only skinny kids share!

I went to BarDog for the first time this past weekend, and it was so fun! We didn't eat though, but now I'm thinking passing up on the fried egg sliders was a real oversight. It would be great to have a chance at redemption through the race!
