ATLANTA — Ahead of the SEC Championship game between the Georgia Bulldogs and Texas Longhorns, Southwest Airlines surprised some customers with a special “Tailgate in the Sky.”
Lucky football fans flying into Atlanta from Dallas, Texas, were treated to special gear, games, an SEC-inspired cocktail, gate games, and inflight entertainment. One football fan onboard the flight was even surprised with a pair of tickets to the big game!
When the flight touched down at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the fanfare moved to the gate area, where customers had the opportunity to take photos with a replica of the SEC championship trophy.
The game kicks off this Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium at 4 p.m.
