voting process, fans were also able to participate in food sampling and football-themed
games courtesy of event sponsors.

Among the fan favorites were the KC Masterpiece
MasterPass, the GLAD Force Flex Sack Attack and
the Kingsford Smoking Arm; which pitted the rival
fans against each other in football-themed
games. The points leaders of these games were
then eligible to compete in one of the tour’s most
exciting events; the EZ Grill Cook-Off Before Kickoff, a head-to-head cooking challenge where fans
from rival schools competed using the tour’s
products to create the best tailgating dish. Winners received special prize packs.
The only tour of its kind, the Gridiron Rivals Tailgate Tour pits fans from both schools against
each other in unique head-to-head games and
crowns one fan the Tailgater of the Game. Fans
can upload their favorite tailgating pictures to
www.gridirontour.com where everyone can vote
for their favorite tailgater. The ultimate honor
comes at the end of the season: the Tailgater of
the Year Award. The winner, chosen by fans
through online voting, will receive four tickets
to the Chick-fil-A Bowl in Atlanta, Ga.
