It looks like this stuff has been around for a while, but it’s the first I’m hearing about it so I just had to chime in. Sports by Brooks Live called our attention to a new line of food designed specifically for those die hard college football fans in the south. According to its website, Championship Chicken is coming soon to your favorite grocery store. That’s right folks — frozen chicken that gives you one more great way to showcase your SEC pride.
We could sit here and tool on this concept all day long, but the sad part is the idea is probably genius. In fact it may just be the best SEC marketing idea since hot girls were retrieving the faxes on Alabama’s signing day.
Tell me you can’t picture some fat hick and his family in the grocery store staring at the frozen foods and getting all excited that dinner tonight is going to come out of a box that says,”Roll Tide.” When you think about the fact some guy said, “Boomer Sooner” as his last words on death row, it would come as no surprise to hear that someone was choosing their chicken because their favorite SEC team was on the box.
When it comes down to it, tons of people would rather take home “War Eagle” Auburn chicken than your standard Tyson frozen tenders. The way SEC fans see it, you wouldn’t be a true fan if you passed it up.
