Starting January, 1, 2015 Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlour Restaurants began celebrating everything delicious about football by introducing, for a limited time, a new burger and fry combo and a football themed sundae! Plus, guests will be able to enter-to-win for Farrell’s to come out and cater their “Big Game” party on February 1, 2015.

The Tailgate Burger is an action packed burger that slams two stadium favorites together into one hardy burger. A delicious cheeseburger and nachos in one! It all starts with a fresh 1/2 lb. Angus patty with melty Pepper Jack cheese, and crisp lettuce, then, thrown on top of that, a pile of nachos built with a crisp heaping helping of Doritos® nacho chips, melted cheddar cheese, sour cream, black olives, fresh guacamole and house-made salsa. This beast is served with Bleu Buffalo waffle fries on the side. (Farrell’s waffle fries drizzled with zesty buffalo sauce and tangy bleu cheese.) Farrell’s Tailgate Burger and Bleu Buffalo waffle fries combo is priced at $13.99.

To top that off, don’t settle for the field goal… go for the extra point and get Farrell’s 4th and Goal Sundae. A 4-scoop sundae fit for a linebacker heaps up two scoops of Vanilla, a scoop of Chocolate Malted Crunch and a scoop of Cookie Dough ice cream dripping with warm caramel and chocolate topping, a mound of fresh whipped cream and a cherry on top. Not “Super” enough? Under your souvenir, take-home Farrell’s helmet, you’ll find a pile of Oreo® crumbs to top that sundae off just right. The 4th and Goal sundae with take home helmet is priced at $11.99.

Guests also have the chance to win Farrell’s catering at their own personal “Big Game” party on February 1, 2014. All guests need to do is fill out the enter-to-win card when dining at any participating Farrell’s location.

All items are available at participating Farrell’s California and Hawaii locations. Locations and complete details and rules for Farrell’s Caters Your Big Game Party can be found at FarrellsUSA.com.
