The last event of the season held at our favorite Restaurant. This is the last time to see the team that Tuchel built in action. Join us for beer and schnitzel and Miki and Auba and Marco and Shinji and…
Pokal Finale Los Angeles – Dortmund v. Bayern
Tag: Wirtshaus
Liverpool vs. Dortmund Round 2
It seems like every week I’m saying “this is the biggest match of the season.” Well…this is the biggest match of the season. There is no reason that we shouldn’t beat Liverpool and move on to the semi-finals, but…
This Event will be televised at Wirtshaus on La Brea and at the Cock’n Bull in Santa Monica. Most of us have to take some time off from work on Thursdays and will choose the most convenient pub.
Meetup: Tottenham Hotspurs v. Borussia Dortmund
Is the #2 team in the Premier League so beaten down and demoralized by our resounding home victory that they cannot give us trouble in England? Probably not. Plus: it’s Schnitzel Month at Wirtshaus! Please join BVBLA for a long and enjoyable lunch.
BVBLA – Echte Liebe in Los Angeles
The Borussia Dortmund Los Angeles Fan Club. It started when two strangers asked on Reddit: “Where can I watch the match in LA?” Now a year later, we’re had our largest event to date, over 30 Fans at Wirtshaus for Der Klassiker 2 on March 5.
Scottish Breakfast Club – The Hardcore
We all love Wirtshaus and the owners are Founding Members of the club. Unfortunately, most Bundesliga matches happen at 6:30am or so, and Wirtshaus cannot open for us. Enter the Cock’n Bull in Santa Monica. They are all EPL fans, mostly for Liverpool, but they have helped us get together for matches that happen before sunrise. Only a handful of us get there for every match and the Scottish Breakfast with Guinness is the preferred order.
We Like the Bayern Fans…Really!
The FC Bayern München Los Angeles Official Supporters Club were here before us and they have been helpful in every way. Our largest turnout in 2015 (20) was at Tom’s Urban for the first Der Klassiker of the season. That was a crappy day, we must admit (5-1
How Lucky We Were
We were hoping to get to 50 likes on Facebook and 20 fans out for a match before the end of the season. As I write this, we are at 97 likes and looking to break all records for attendance this weekend. Are we organizational masterminds?
The real reason seems to be that Borussia Dortmund is having one of their greatest seasons in decades. Thomas Tuchel now looks brilliant. Major injuries have been avoided (knocking on wood). Rotation players are starting to show what they can do. Our Club favorite Henrikh Mkhitaryan* has emerged as one of the top players in Europe. It goes on and on.
*Götze? Reus? Dembele? Who can say.
Every Match
We’re going to try to meet up for every possible match in 2016 and 2017. Early morning Saturdays and Sundays will be at the Cock’n Bull. Select Champions League matches (11:45am Wednesdays) also at the Cock’n Bull. BVB vs. Bayern is usually at Wirtshaus.
Der Klassiker 2 – BVB vs. Bayern
This is it! Nobody else can be counted on to beat Bayern, so we’ll have to do it ourselves!
All Los Angeles Bundesliga fans are welcome. Wirtshaus will be open early and we expect a huge crowd.
End of Year Meetup at Wirtshaus
Our first meetup was at Wirtshaus for the season opener: 4-0 BVB! It’s been a great season since then, with mostly success and a little heartache. Now, at the end of 2015 we will gather again to look back and look forward.
This meetup includes our friends from The Bayern LA Fan Club and is also Bill Caulfield’s Birthday. Please RSVP on Facebook so we can warn Wirtshaus on the numbers. This one looks very popular.
Meetup: Borussia Dortmund @ Hamburg
A rare Friday night match in Hamburg means we can drop in for lunch at Wirtshaus. They have been a major supporter of the Club and we like to support them in return.
After avoiding relegation last season, Hamburger SV is currently at 11th in the table. Massive improvement and definitely a threat at home.
