Get Ready For Tailgating Season With Beef!

There is nothing quite like the sights and smells of a K-State tailgate. That is why the Kansas Beef Council is proud to continue its partnership with Kansas State Athletics through the Tailgater of the Game program, spotlighting the fans who make beef the star of game day. From brisket to steak kabobs to a classic burger, these are the tailgates worth celebrating.

How It Works

Here is how it works: fire up beef at any K-State home game and you are automatically entered to win. Each game, one tailgater is selected to receive a Pit Boss Tabletop Griddle and KBC swag. At the end of the season, one lucky weekly winner is randomly chosen as the Tailgater of the Season and takes home a Pit Boss Smoker and box seats to the final home game.
