Saturdays are for Tailgating

The University of Minnesota – Duluth Athletic Department has partnered with Upper Lakes Foods to provide an exclusive, fun game day experience for their students and alumni. ULF is the official sponsor of the Malosky Stadium Tailgating Event for home football games.

We joined the Bulldogs in support of Operation One Voice on the Military Appreciation Day game on Saturday, September 16th. We brought our Traveling Kitchen and served up Korean BBQ Pulled Pork Sliders with Spicy Kimchi and chips.

ULF’s Digital Marketing Coordinator, Mariah Berg, was on the field for the official coin toss. She was joined by Bill Stevens of Operation One Voice who flipped the coin to kick things off.

Nearly 4,500 spectators attended the event and cheered on the Bulldogs as they faced off against Minnesota State University-Mankato.

From UMD Athletics’ website:

With UMD trailing by just a touchdown and a little under three minutes to go in regulation, the Minnesota State University-Mankato running back bust loose for a 47-yard touchdown run and sealed the Mavericks’ 38-23 victory over the Bulldogs in a battle of NCAA Division II heavyweights at James S. Malosky Stadium.
