Lay’s Golden Grounds Potato Chips: Eat a chip while the Packers chase the ‘chip! Look, a door.
Anyway Lay’s has apparently released these ‘Golden Grounds’ chips in 29 of the 32 NFL markets. Apparently the Broncos, Bengals and Browns are not a fan of Lay’s potato chips and opted out of the gimmick. They decided they could eat just one.
Now this is the EXACT type of marketing that I would have loved in the mid-90’s when the Packers were on the come up. I’m pretty sure I made my parents by me any and everything they slapped a Packer logo on. Remember these things?
Literally a piece of dirt from Lambeau Field that is still sitting in my freezer. I may sell it as an NFT (?) if my dogecoin investment continues to flounder in 2022.
But if I were 12 years old, I’d be RELENTLESS about getting my hands on a bag of these bad boys. Pushing 40 years old though? I’ve got bigger priorities than sitting on Twitter all day tweeting at Lay’s to send me some of these Packer chips. Today alone I’ve got to click ‘publish’ on this blog without checking it for spelling or grammar errors, then I’ve got to spend 20-180 minutes figuring out today’s Wordle, followed by putting together 7-10 different parlay/teaser combo’s for Wild Card weekend that I think might hit. I’m booked.
But if you have the time, that’s how to acquire these chips. You have to tweet at Lay’s telling them how much you love your team, followed by #LaysGoldenGrounds and #Sweepstakes.
PS: 0% chance these are actually made with any real dirt from Lambeau Field, right? These are just the regular potato chips in different packaging. If you believe the Packers actually shipped off soil from Lambeau Field to Lay’s headquarters you probably also believe that Fox is forcing Terry Bradshaw to give away his own money against his will.
