ORANGE, Calif., Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- With the college football season in full swing, the makers of the WHOLLY^® GUACAMOLE brand are proud to crown Jacqueline Chmielewski of Edinburg, Va., as its first-ever Ultimate College Football Tailgater. Chmielewski was recently awarded a grand prize of $10,000 and a year's supply of WHOLLY^® GUACAMOLE products as part of the brand's "Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts."

The brand team visited The Ohio State University, the University of Nebraska and the University of Colorado, giving college football fans a shot at guacamole glory and prizes through fun tailgating activities that spotlight the great taste and convenience of its always-ready, made from real Hass avocado products.

"Recognizing that tensions can soar on game day, our hassle-free approach ensures that tailgaters and homegaters can snack stress-free and focus on cheering on their team," said Chris Monahan, brand manager of WHOLLY^® products. "Whether it's that hometown pride or alumni spirit, we created the Ultimate College TailGUACing Tryouts with a mission to engage with fans, create memories with fellow tailgaters and provide tasty moments on game day."

During the "Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts," fans had the opportunity to participate in popular tailgating games like cornhole and ladder golf to compete for branded swag and monetary prizes. Plenty of samples of WHOLLY^® GUACAMOLE products were given out to fans, too. "As an avid football fan, my tailgating set up is always a touchdown with delicious, always-ready guacamole and appetizers, and good vibes," Chmielewski said. "Being named the Ultimate College Football Tailgater by the makers of WHOLLY^® GUACAMOLE shows that my favorite game-day dip appreciates tailgating season just as much I do."
