Wear sunglasses and get free (or cheap) stuff around D-FW

The future's so bright, guys. Shades.

Saturday, June 27 is National Sunglasses Day. Nevermind that every day should be Sunglasses Day in the hot hot summer -- or at least every day when it's not raining buckets. With this bright, shiny holiday, you'll get to wear your shades, inside or outside, day or night, and get deals around Dallas-Fort Worth.

Free shades, free soda: At the Fort Worth Vaqueros soccer match on Saturday, June 27 against the Houston Dynamo U-23s, you'll get a free pair of sunglasses if you're one of the first 300 people in the door. Game tickets are just $5 per person. Once inside, the special sunglasses will get you a free bottle of Jarritos, a Mexican soda.

If you attended the FC Dallas game the night before, on Friday, June 26, you'll skip that $5 ticket and get free admittance by showing the Friday night ticket at the door. Deal!

Fort Worth Vaqueros vs Houston Dynamo U-23s on Saturday, June 27 at 7:30 p.m.: Texas Wesleyan University Martin Field, 599 Collard St., Fort Worth. fortworthvaqueros.com. Free to $5 for the game.

Half-off chicken: Get 50 percent off your order at chicken tenders joint PDQ in Frisco if you're wearing shades when you order. The deal runs all day Monday, June 29 -- two days after National Sunglases Day, but we're not complaining.

Protip: Don't have sunglasses? They'll have some wacky ones for you to put on inside the restaurant and still get the deal. That's really nice.

Just don't wear your sunglasses indoors, thinking you'll get free stuff, on June 30. No, you'll just be the jerk wearing sunglasses inside a restaurant.
