Sunday, September 27 – Football fanatics and philanthropists fit right in at 723 Whiskey Bravo. This Sunday come to watch your favorite NFL team on one of the many high definition TVs throughout the restaurant. Dine on specialty “End Zone” menu items like nachos, wings, pork sliders, and grouper bites. Drink specials are available all day or order up a $15 Burger and Brew combo. When the check comes and you’ve satisfied your stomach and your team spirit, consider adding a few dollars for Whiskey’s Angel Flight mission, a volunteer pilot effort to transport those with medical needs to treatment facilities. A $20 donation will grant you one of the Angel Flight mascots, an aviator teddy bear, as a thank you.
