America's No.1 refrigerated guacamole kicks off National Guacamole Day and Division I college football season with "Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts" and chance to win cash prizes and branded swag
ORANGE, Calif., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for National Guacamole Day on Sept. 16 and in celebration of the kickoff of the Division I college football season, the makers of the WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE brand — the ultimate game-day dip — are giving college football fans a reason to cheer louder than ever. The makers of WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE foods are giving one lucky fan a shot at guacamole glory with a national sweepstakes that's worth a whole lot of green — a package valued at $10,000 and a year's supply of WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE products.
And that's not all! The makers of the WHOLLY® brand are also cranking up the tailgating fun with their "Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts" — a fan-focused tailgating event that's hitting three big-time college campuses:
- Sept. 16: The Ohio State University
- Sept. 23: University of Nebraska
- Sept. 30: University of Colorado
"We recognize some of the greatest moments during football season happen in the stands among loyal fans, particularly those who — like the makers of the WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE brand — are always ready on game day," said Chris Monahan, brand manager of WHOLLY® products. "Our tryouts take tailgating to a level beyond your wildest dreams while celebrating everyday people. It's our way of reminding football fans that WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE is the key to hassle-free entertaining on game day."
Participants of the Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts will be registered for a chance at the brand's national sweepstakes as well as a $1,000 cash prize in each market. Fans will compete in a wide variety of popular tailgating activities, from cornhole showdowns, ladder golf and games with flying discs, to obstacle-course challenges and more. At each campus tryout, the top-scoring contestants will receive a branded prize pack, and attendees will enjoy opportunities to sample WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE products and receive branded swag.
Don't worry if your favorite college isn't in the spotlighted trio. The makers of the WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE brand have you covered. Tailgaters across the country who are unable to attend the Ultimate TailGUACing Tryouts are invited to join in the fun online at https://eatwholly.votigo.com/fbsweeps/sweeps/UltimateTailGUACing.
The road to winning can be as smooth as scooping guac. To further engage with football fans across the country, there will be a WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE branded Snapchat AR lens to encourage TailGUACing on game days.
