The FIFA men's World Cup final is set for July 19 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where Spain will take on Argentina in a clash that has captured the attention of football fans worldwide. While the spotlight remains on the teams, a separate event in New York will draw the eyes of Mexican supporters.
Autograph Session at Stew Leonard's
On July 17, former Mexican internationals Jared Borgetti and Luis Hernández will appear at Stew Leonard's in Yonkers to sign bottles of Gran Centenario tequila, the official sponsor of Mexico's national team. The signing is part of a promotional campaign that ties the beverage to the World Cup final.
Borgetti, who netted 46 goals for Mexico and now works as an ESPN analyst, and Hernández, who scored 35 goals and made his mark during the 1998 tournament, are among the country's all‑time leading scorers. Both will be on hand to meet supporters who purchase the Gran Centenario World Cup Fan Package, which grants access to the autograph line.
The promotion underscores the growing intersection of sports, entertainment, and spirits, with the tequila brand leveraging its sponsorship to create a unique fan experience. The event follows a recent visit by former New York Knicks star Walt "Clyde" Frazier to the same store in June, highlighting the venue's role as a gathering point for high‑profile personalities.
