There may be nonetheless every week and alter to go between now and the Tremendous Bowl, however odds are you have got on the very least began to plan what you’re going to eat.
I’d think about that there shall be some form of wings or nachos choice to start out, perhaps someone’s well-known dip, however on the finish of the day there shall be a most important course so to talk.
Maybe you’ll go large and do a brisket like me (nbd) however perhaps you determine to go together with an all-time traditional… a pizza pie.
Pizza makes all of the sense on the planet for soccer and subsequently for The Massive Sport. There are clearly quite a lot of choices for pizzas that adjust in worth, however can I curiosity you in a single that’s free?
That’s proper I stated free. If a kicker doinks a kick within the Tremendous Bowl, the almighty doink, then you may win a free pizza from DiGiorno. We should all be rooting for doinks.
How do I do know this, although? I’m so joyful you requested. My good mates Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen informed me after I talked to them in a video that you may watch by the use of the Running a blog The Boys YouTube Channel. You may as well hearken to our dialog on Friday’s version of The SB Nation NFL Present.
I’m positive that you just suppose that me calling KB and Greg my ‘good mates’ is a stretch however as a Dallas Cowboys fan I do know them somewhat nicely. Burkhardt, Olsen, Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi did an unimaginable 9 Dallas Cowboys video games all through the 2023 season.
Among the many extra memorable moments that this crew produced really concerned a kicker lacking a subject aim which bodes nicely for pizza functions. In the event you didn’t know, Cowboys rookie kicker Brandon Aubrey had actually not missed a subject aim by means of the primary 16 video games of the common season. When he lined up for one in Week 18 on the street in opposition to Washington… Burkhardt made it a degree to convey this up, Olsen joked about an announcer’s jinx, and Aubrey had his kick blocked. Growth.
Shockingly Aubrey would go on to overlook one other kick within the sport earlier than making one and calming the waters, however his shot at an ideal season was nicely over by then. Fortunately Aubrey nonetheless tasks to be a prime kicker for the foreseeable future, however the entire sequence was actually fairly superb so I clearly introduced it as much as them.
What makes the state of affairs even funnier in hindsight is the added context of what the FOX crew mentioned the evening earlier than. Burkhardt and Olsen informed the story collectively throughout our dialog.
Hopefully Kevin Burkhardt is channeling no matter he can right into a kicker providing a doink throughout the Tremendous Bowl in order that we will all have free pizza. Discover out extra details about the promotion proper right here.
Our because of Kevin Burkhardt, Greg Olsen and DiGiorno for the time.
