Celebrate your team with Bojangles’ custom Big Bo Boxes – because when it comes to football Saturdays, the tailgate is the real game-winner
We’re officially halfway through football season – and whether your team is flying high with a winning record or has a long way to go before a bowl game is even a possibility, we’ve got the perfect playbook for a successful Saturday in the South: Bojangles at your tailgate.
Bojangles partners with 10 universities – and the Carolina Panthers – each football season to specially design customized Big Bo Boxes. Not only do they hold delicious chicken, biscuits, fixins and tea, but they’re also a fun (and delicious) way to show off your team spirit at the tailgate.
Here’s how you can ‘Go Bo’ and elevate your tailgates with a little school spirit the rest of football season. Fuel up and get ready to cheer your team on!
Pre-Game Roads to Victory
At Clemson’s Tiger Walk and East Tennessee State’s Buc Walk, fans line up to cheer on the players as they make their way to the stadium. Stash a Big Bo Box under your arm for easy access to Chicken Supremes (the ultimate finger food) as you march along with the team to the perfect tailgating spot – just like the Tigers and the Bucs, you’re all about the game plan!
Ba-GOCK!
Tailgating at Coastal Carolina or South Carolina wouldn’t be the same without their respective chicken-like mascots: Chauncey the Chaunticleer and Cocky the Gamecock. You’ll need a Big Bo Box with all the fixins – think Bo Fries, Dirty Rice, Macaroni & Cheese, the works – because you’ll need to keep the crowd roaring while you strut through the parking lot like these two kings.
Chicken Cheers
Ahoy, ECU fans! The purple and gold chant echoes across the stadium every game day. Why not start the chant at your tailgate while you pass around some of Bojangles’ famous chicken? Add in some Legendary Iced Tea to keep the crew refreshed – it’s a winning recipe.
And while we’re talking chants – Georgia fans know how to “Call the Dawgs” loud and proud. If you’re at a Bulldogs tailgate, bring Bojangles’ perfectly seasoned chicken to keep your bark just as strong as your bite.
JM-U Need Biscuits
James Madison students and alums paint the Spirit Rock in support of their Dukes. While you’re mapping out your best design early on Saturday mornings, grab a few Cajun Filet Biscuits for some tailgate fuel. Just don’t get too distracted by their deliciousness – the real masterpiece is making sure you have enough for everyone!
Bluff ’n’ Bo Time
North Carolina A&T’s tradition of Aggies on the Bluff brings fans together for a community tailgate with views that can’t be beaten. What could make it better? Sharing a big helping of chicken and biscuits along with your Aggie Pride as you take in the best pre-game vibes and Southern eats in the land.
Paw-some Parade Eats
The Paws Parade is a tailgating staple for Western Carolina Catamount fans. Keep your energy up with a Bo’s Chicken Sandwich (or two) as you watch the Pride of the Mountains Marching Band get the crowd pumped. Trust us, after a few bites of Bo’s, you’ll be ready to march alongside them!
Sail-gate & Celebrate
There’s nothing quite like Tennessee’s famous Vol Navy, where fans tailgate by boat! Whether you’re on the water or the shore, Bojangles makes the perfect tailgating companion. Pack up a Big Bo Box and set sail for a game day filled with delicious food and spirited “Rocky Top” cheers for the V-O-L-S.
No matter which school you’re rooting for, Bojangles is here to make sure your tailgate is legendary. Because let’s face it – football might be the main event, but great food and fun are what make game day unforgettable.
