The Crown Royal Rig delivers a grand tailgate featuring custom details including a chrome Crown Royal grill complete with the brand's iconic pillow logo hood ornament. The unique cab features a hand painted Crown Royal purple pinstripe design and will travel to ten NFL cities across the country (Kansas City, Dallas, Houston, Cleveland, Detroit, Cincinnati, Green Bay, Atlanta, Jacksonville, and New Orleans) with surprises along the way. At each stop, Crown Royal and an NFL legend will host a pre-kick off tailgate for fans 21+ complete with music, cocktails and other exciting activities.
The decked out 18-wheeler will make its 2024 NFL season debut in company of Chiefs super fan and Official Crown Royal Rig driver, Rob Riggle, at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium for the first matchup between the Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens on September 5th. Ahead of kick-off Riggle and NFL Hall-Of-Famer Tony Gonzalez will co-host the tailgate, leading the ceremonial first pour and cheering with fans 21+ as they participate in the brand's Purple Bag Project benefiting Packages from Home.
"As a die-hard Kansas City fan, teaming up with Crown Royal to spread generosity and support our military throughout the season is truly the perfect partnership," says Rob Riggle. "I am so excited to be able to drive this amazing tricked out rig and give back! It's so simple – fans will turn donated Crown Royal Bags into care packages for active American military heroes, a community that I'm deeply passionate about."
Crown Royal has partnered with Packages from Home for over a decade through the Purple Bag Project to give back to those who give so much of themselves to us – the military. Through the partnership, the duo has donated over one million bags and counting. The organization is dedicated to boosting the morale and quality of life for U.S. military personnel stationed overseas and veterans facing challenges at home. Crown Royal is proud to continue its support of this important mission by making the Purple Bag Project a central feature of the 'Kick Off with Crown' program.
"The Crown Royal Rig is a character of its own – running on the generous spirit of Crown Royal," said Hadley Schafer, VP of Crown Royal. "With the Crown Royal Rig, thousands of NFL fans across the country will give back to our invaluable military heroes. In our fourth year as the Official Whisky Sponsor of the NFL, it's important for us to offer something extra special to the fans from our next level tailgate to giving them a chance to win tickets to Super Bowl LIX with our online sweeps!"
The 'Kick Off with Crown' campaign launched in 2021 and celebrated the hospitality workers that make game day great at stadiums and entertaining venues across the country, this year the brand is offering something extra special to the fans. For the first time ever, the brand is offering a few lucky fans 25+ a chance to win tickets to Super Bowl LIX!
