College Bowl Season is upon us, and no one is more ready for it than analyst and former player Pat McAfee.
It’s the most wonderful time of the college football year. Bowl season is upon us, which means starting soon we will have an almost nonstop barrage of college football games leading up to the College Football Playoff in January.
Not all of the games are great, and most will be nothing more than tears in the rain of the postseason. But if you love college football, there are few traditions more cozy than knowing some sort of football will be on at any given time during the week.
One of those bowls is the Cheez-It Bowl. And one of those aforementioned college football fanatics is former player and current ESPN analyst Pat McAfee. After his playing days with the Indianapolis Colts ended — with a tremendous retirement announcement — McAfee has taken his talents to Thursday Night College Football, as well as ESPN College Gameday, embedding himself in the culture of college football.
College football fans will have a chance to attend the Cheez-It Bowl with McAfee, who has donned the nickname “the Master of Cheez” for the occasion. Winners won’t just sit in the stands, but instead join Pat in a two-story Cheez-It “box” for a fun-filled game experience filled with cheesy, crunchy goodness.
Fans who want to win can do so by sharing their passion for Cheez-It using photo or video with #CheezPickMePatEntry and tagging @CheezIt on Twitter starting December 5.
McAfee is all about giving back to more than just those who want to watch a game with him. Throughout his NFL career, McAfee was behind a number of different charitable efforts without ever sacrificing his true character. Look no further than McAfee’s challenge to punt a ball into a giant bowl of Cheez-Its in honor of the Cheez-It Bowl. Every time Pat makes the punt, Cheez-It will make a donation to Vet Tix, or the Veteran Tickets Foundation.
