Tailgate in Lot A for Maroon & White Game
HEB, Fiesta Brand spices and the Texas Beef Council have teamed up with Aggie football to give fans the chance to win a Texas A&M Tailgate in Lot A of Kyle Field prior to the Maroon & White Game presented by Melrose StudentSuites and Allstate.
Two lucky fans will be selected on April 16th to win a complimentary tailgate for them and 25 of their friends. This tailgate will include Texas Beef Council products, Fiesta Brand spices, and HEB branded products. The tailgate will take place in the northwest corner of Lot A, which is the lot on Wellborn Road directly behind the Kyle Field press box.
“This is a great opportunity for fans who don’t normally have a chance to park in Lot A at Aggie football games to experience a fantastic tailgate prior to the Maroon & White Game,” head coach Mike Sherman said. “The whole game day experience is centered around ‘Fan Appreciation,’ and having some of our corporate partners step up to put on a free tailgate for the winners in the premium lot for Kyle Field is something special that those fans and their friends should enjoy.”
