Liberty National Bank in Ada is having a tailgate party from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17. Chicken wings have been ordered from Tavern 101, and employees will provide their favorite dishes to round out the fare.
The party will be held in the bank lobby. Wear your favorite school's colors, whether high school or university. One catch: if you wear jeans, there will be a $5 charge that will be given to the bank's Share the Warmth campaign, which provides winter clothing to those in need in the community.
Friday is always popcorn day at LNB, and it will be available, too, as usual.
