Don’t miss the Bulldog Wrestling Fan Social

It is time for the All-Class State Wrestling tournament in Billings. The Butte High Bulldogs are sending a combined 32 wrestlers to the Metra to compete for hardware. 20 Butte High boys and 12 girls will hit the mats on Friday morning to represent the Purple and White. We will run through those wrestlers in a moment, but first, let’s talk about the Butte Wrestling Fan Social.

The Butte Wrestling Fan Social is a way to get all the Butte wrestling fans together to celebrate Butte wrestling and get pumped up for the weekend of action. The event has been a massive success over the past five years, and Butte is the only school in the state that has this kind of event. If you are planning on going to Billings for State, you don’t want to miss this event.

The Butte Wrestling Fan Social is Thursday night starting at 7:30 at the Double Tree by Hilton. 27 N. 27th Street Billings, Grand Ballroom A.

Again, the Social will start at 7:30, there will be appetizers provided, and there will also be a drink bar attached to the room (no outside food or beverage allowed). The event will have a good ‘Tailgate’ feel to it, so the entire family is going to have a great time.

Other things to look forward to are the guest speakers, over the years we have heard from John Metz, and Barb and Jason Street. There will also be Bulldog Wrestling Trivia and prize giveaways throughout the evening. Some of the items given away through the years, are Yeti coolers, wrestling apparel, swag, signed headgear from the state teams, and a whole lot more.

This Social is put on by Butte High Fans for Butte High Fans. Hope to see you Thursday night in Billings.

32 Bulldog wrestlers will look to climb through the bracket starting Friday morning.
