Vans BBQ

Free gear, waffles, BBQ, drinks and a huge sale. We hyped up the Vans Bus Tour as THE place to be on Wednesday, August 5th. Tactics was getting calls all morning, “Is the Vans bus going to be at Tactics today!?” “Who’s all going to be there to sign my shoes?” “What time should I get there for the BBQ?” All these calls were, unfortunately, given the same response: “Sorry to get your hopes up, but Vans canceled their tour. We’re still BBQ-ing though!”
The Vans merchandising rep still showed up, set up shop, and held down the grill for a couple hours. All the kids skated in the front parking lot and people seemed to be enjoying themselves. It was a good time and we hope to the Bus Tour reschedules cause there was a ton of interest from the local skaters. Check the photos below from Tactics lensman Jesse “Wetrat” Johnson.
