performance of this disposable grill, and it’s under $10!,” said Lorick. More information on this
unique disposable grill can be found at www.eazybbq.com.

the tailgate! The motorized Cruzin Cooler is an absolute blast and is designed to go about 13
miles per hour while carrying a case of your favorite beverage on ice!” More information on the
Cruzin Cooler can be found at www.cruzincooler.com.

Best Tailgating Game
Warphole®: “I love cornhole and Warphole took the classic game of cornhole to the next level

Best Way to Power Your Tailgate

noise, no gas, just power,” said Lorick. More information on Jackery Portable Power Stations
can be found at www.jackery.com.

Best Fire Pit Fuel
Enviro-Log® Firelogs: “There is nothing like a warm fire on a cool fall evening and Enviro-Log
Firelogs are the easiest way to start a fire. They are made of 100 percent recycled material and
burn cleaner than firewood! The company is fun too. Last year they teamed with Kentucky
Fried Chicken® to offer a limited-edition 11 Herbs & Spices Firelog, inspired by the Colonel’s
very own Secret Recipe. These are my kind of people!” More information on Enviro-Log
Firelogs can be found at www.enviro-log.net.

Best Grilling Utensil
Grillight®: “I grill at night a lot and have undercooked meat before. Since I grill by sight, the
Grillight has changed my night grilling forever!,” said Lorick. More information on Grillight can
be found at www.grillight.com.

Best Tailgating Truck Accessory
Tale Gator®: “Tailgating started on the back of the pickup tailgate. The Tale Gator made the
tailgate better with the most comfortable way to sit on a tailgate,” said Lorick. More information
on Tale Gator can be found at www.thetalegator.com .

Best Soft Cooler
Engel® HD30 Soft Sided Cooler: “I get tired of lugging heavy coolers around and the Engel
HD30 Soft Sided Cooler changed that with a 5 pound cooler that keeps ice for almost 4 days!,”
said Lorick. More information on the Engel HD30 Soft Sided Cooler can be found at
www.engelcoolers.com.

Best Gameday Fashion Accessory:

is the gameday accessory that holds your beer while you do awesome things like play games
and high five after the big play,” said Lorick. More information on BevBuckle can be found at

About Tailgating Challenge
It all started with an everyday person, Luke Lorick, who like many others, worked for a large
corporation that demanded long work-weeks of 50+ hours. Luke remembered hearing people say
that “if you do something you love, you never work a day in your life.” Determined to test that
theory, Luke decided to put his long-time passion of tailgating (mainly at the University of South
Carolina, where he graduated from in 2004), to work. And there you have it – the beginning of
Tailgating Challenge®. Since establishing Tailgating Challenge in 2012, Luke Lorick has quickly
become a leading subject matter expert of all tailgating-related products. Luke is also the founder
of National Tailgating Day, which takes place the first September of every year. He is driven by a
strong will to make Tailgating Challenge, and the content it delivers, be the best it can for his fans.
Luke is arguably the world’s most trusted subject matter expert who attracts a significant, active,
and loyal audience.
