🎉 It’s FUNKY FRESH FRIDAY with John & Robb at Guild Mortgage Company, bringing you the BEST things happening in the Valley this weekend!
🍫 Friday, June 26 is National Chocolate Pudding Day — a holiday dedicated to the creamy chocolate dessert that’s been making people happy long before TikTok convinced us to put cottage cheese in everything. Chocolate pudding has been around for generations, loved by kids, adults, and grandparents who swear the homemade version is still undefeated. Celebrate responsibly… and maybe don’t get caught licking the pudding cup in the office break room. 😄
🔥 WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEEKEND 🔥
1️⃣ Nate Bargatze – Big Dumb Eyes World Tour
📍 PHX Arena (Mortgage Matchup Center) | 🗓️ Friday & Saturday
One of the biggest comedians on the planet bringing clean comedy, painfully relatable observations, and proof that being “normal” can still lead to massive success. If you enjoy laughing at everyday life — this is a can’t‑miss show. 🎤😂
2️⃣ World Cup Watch Parties at Tom’s Watch Bar 📍 Downtown Phoenix | 🗓️ All Weekend
Watch international soccer the way it’s meant to be watched — surrounded by screaming fans, waving flags, and over 100 screens. Guaranteed seating, big energy, and at least one person pretending they fully understand offsides. ⚽🍻
3️⃣ Dive‑In Movie: Deep Blue Sea 📍 Lylo Swim Club | 🗓️ Friday Night | 21+
Float in the pool while watching the 1999 cult classic where scientists make sharks smarter… and the sharks immediately choose violence. Your ticket includes pool access, a DJ, trivia, and photo ops. If you hear the Jaws theme — exit the pool immediately. 🦈🎬
4️⃣ Arizona Roller Derby – Season 23 Double Header📍 Mesa | 🗓️ Saturday @ 3 PM
Two games, four teams, and what can only be described as organized chaos on wheels. Bad News Beaters vs. West Coast Derby Knockouts, followed by Skate Riot Project vs. Orange County Roller Derby. $15 gets you both games — kids under 10 get in free. Fast, loud, and ridiculously fun. 🛼🔥
💡 FUNKY FRESH FRIDAY TIP OF THE WEEK:
If you’re thinking about buying a home in the next 6–12 months, don’t wait until you’re ready to make an offer to talk to a loan officer. The earlier we connect, the more we can help — from reviewing credit and down payment options to creating a plan so you’re ready when the right house shows up. Planning ahead = more options and less stress.
