Now, with the popular beer garden being included in the official Fresno edition of Monopoly, even more people will become exposed to Tioga-Sequoia. On Nov. 22, Tioga-Sequoia celebrated its participation in the famous board game with a launch party. Tioga-Sequoia’s president Michael Cruz said that they were the first business featured in Fresno Monopoly to sell physical copies of the game and sold over 40 boards during the launch party. Cruz had been anticipating being selected for Monopoly for months, and they were still excited when they found out they had been chosen. Visit Fresno County, the county’s visitor’s bureau, recommended Tioga-Sequoia. “[Monopoly] was referred to us by the visitor’s bureau,” Cruz said. “They worked with local entities to kind of see who the icons in the valley are within different segments that they can appeal to and interview for the board, and I believe that’s how we got on their radar.” Cruz touched on what being a part of the game meant for him and the company. “They only do one [Fresno Monopoly version], so to be on something, one version of the first and only version of something that memorializes our place in the city. It’s more than just the immediate press that you get off of it,” Cruz said. “It’s something that’s going to be ingrained in a board game that people are familiar with, and they’ll be even more familiar with this local version that appeals to them and brings back memories and experiences.” One of the biggest storylines heading into 2025 for Fresno Tioga-Sequoia Beer Garden was already one of Fresno’s most well-known The Madera County Department of Public Health announced Monday that Dr. Rolston St. Hilaire, dean of the Jordan College of AgriculturalMrBeast, the highly popular YouTuber, released his latest video on Saturday and it's a collaboration with some of the world's top athletes taking on regular people in various competitions. Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, Olympic gold medalist Noah Lyles, Philadelphia Phillies slugger Bryce Harper, two-time U.S. Open golf champion Bryson DeChambeau, and soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo all take part. Each contestant could take home $100,000 if they won their event. If they lost, the money would go to a charity of the athlete's choice. The Ronaldo competition had a bigger prize to it: $1 million if his opponent won. Here's the full event listing, which saw a few of them end up closer than you might assume. High school quarterback Jake took on Brady in an event where the winner had to pop four balloons from various yardages away. MrBeast's friend, Jonah, took on Lyles in a 200-meter race. Lyles later would race online streamer IShowSpeed in a 50-meter sprint. Social media sensation Big Justice faced off with Harper in a home run derby. Amateur golfer Aaron battled with DeChambeau on a single golf hole to see who could get a better score. Finally, Ronaldo took on soccer fan Khalid in the $1 million target shootout.The luck of Suaalii: Broken wrist ruled out and could face Ireland
