Well… this is honestly one of the hardest things we’ve ever had to post.
Leaving this area and all of you is tough. Over the years, TG has become so much more than a bar. We’ve built a family—a hardcore, love/hate, always-got-your-back, look-out-for-each-other kind of family. And for that, we are incredibly grateful.
For those asking about the rumors, here’s the truth: last year we were only offered a one-year lease, and shortly after that, the process of selling our space began. The plan is to “upscale” the complex. 🙄 Good luck with that.
After almost 23 years, this chapter is coming to an end. It’s taken a lot of time and effort, but we believe we’ve found a solid new home.
The memories, friendships, laughs, celebrations, and even the occasional chaos are things we’ll never forget. ❤️
We’re looking forward to making the most of the time we have left in Tempe and celebrating with all of you along the way. And while our next location may be a little off the beaten path, we can’t wait to welcome you there and start making new memories together in Mesa.
Thank you for being part of the Tailgate family. This isn’t goodbye—it’s just our next chapter.
🍻❤️ See you tomorrow, family.
