Not every day do you get a celeb hitting their home turf just to throwback with fans, but that's Mario Lopez for you. Coming right into San Diego for his birthday month, Lopez isn't just sipping tequila—he’s signing it. Swing by Old Town Tequila and Keg N Bottle this October 24 if you want a bottle of Casa México Tequila adorned with a little star power.
Sips, Signatures, and Celebrations
Here's the skinny: Lopez kicks off the day at Old Town Tequila bright and early, and if you want that autograph, you'd better be too. He's slated from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM there. Then he's darting over to Keg N Bottle in Del Cerro for the afternoon shift, from 1:30 to 3:30 PM, keeping that pen moving at a clip.
San Diego Roots Run Deep
Mario's got a soft spot for San Diego that goes way back—a hometown hero of sorts. He's been a driving force with Casa México, ever since he toasted with 120 bottles of it at his own wedding. Pretty neat, right? Adds a personal touch to every clink of the glass.
"There's no better way to celebrate my birthday than back home in San Diego, raising a glass of Casa México with the people who've been with me from the start," Lopez said.
Robert Crossan, the CEO holding the reins at Casa México Tequila, doubled down on that homely feeling. Celebrating with Mario in his backyard makes this event feel like more than just another promo stunt—it's a homecoming fiesta.

Casa México Tequila: Not Just a Drop in the Glass
Casa México isn't some mass-produced hooch. It's crafted in Jalisco, Mexico, painstakingly upholding traditional methods with 100% Blue Weber agave. Slow-cooked and small-batched—that's quality you can taste, packaged neatly in every sip you take. Mario's advocacy and genuine connection to the brand undoubtedly elevates its presence.
For those who've got the name Mario Lopez ringing any of those nostalgic TV bells, remember him as A.C. Slater from 'Saved by the Bell'. Well, he's also a driving force in the entertainment circuit, bouncing around gigs with Extra and Access Hollywood. So, him cozying up in San Diego with some bottles isn't just a celeb gimmick—it’s like coming full circle.
Raise a Glass—or a Bottle
Tequila and TV stars might not have seemed like the most natural pairing, but here we are, 2026 style. Lopez isn’t just banking on past fame to push his brand; he’s connecting with roots, raising a bottle, and marking another year in the town that first set him on his path. If that’s not a tipple-worthy anecdote, I don’t know what is.
