Did you know we have a MUG CLUB? 👀

When you join our Mug Club, you receive discounts on your draft beer at Moran’s Grill Papillion! You receive a personalized, engraved mug and mug #, and the mug is displayed above the bar. When you come in, you just order your beer and it's served in your exclusive mug 🍺

Even better than that, your mug club membership directly supports the American Legion's efforts to advocate for veterans and support the community.

Membership starts at $40 for the first year, then $20 yearly after that. Sign up at the bar inside at Moran's Grill located in the lower level of the post!

This is historic and took a lot of moving parts to get into place!

Thank you to KETV NewsWatch 7 for the story!

The 93,000-pound piece of military equipment needed a crane to move and swing it into place.

Hey Papillion, wanna play a lil' Bingo? We are proud to announce twice monthly Bingo at Post 32 beginning November 30th!

What will these Bingo Occasions look like?
No Reservations! 🤭 We will not be taking reservations, these will be first-come, first-serve seats but don't let that scare you. We will have enough seating for 160 people!

No Alcohol! We will not be able to serve alcohol on these occasions due to the NE Charitable Gaming Laws. We will have the concessions open as normal, and you will be able to order food at your table from Moran’s Grill Papillion.

These occasions will be CASH PRIZES! Unlike our quarterly Bingo, funded by donations, these monthly occasions will be cash prizes 💰💰

We hope to see you soon!
