“Although some of the most popular barbecue teams from years past will be on hand selling their award-winning ‘que,’ we wanted the event to be crazier. By crazy, we simply mean mullets and beer pong,” says event Co-Founder, David Tyda.

One of the biggest and newest attractions to the Arizona BBQ Festival is the Redneck Games Arena. Fans can enter hilarious, redneck-inspired competitions, from hubcap hurling and horseshoe games with toilet seats to watermelon seed spitting contests and arm wrestling. The arena stage emcee is KNIX’s own Barrel Boy. Winners will not only receive a basket full of goodies, but also a chance to caress the barrel. The qualifying games and contest includes the following:

• Dead Lawn Mower Race (3 chances at 1pm, 2pm, 3pm)
• Arm Wrestling (3 chances at 1:15pm, 2:15pm, 3:15pm)
• Watermelon Seed Spitting (3 chances at 1:30pm, 2:30pm, 3:30pm)
• Hub Cap Hurl (3 chances at 1:45pm, 2:45pm, 3:45pm)
• Bobbing for Pigs Feet (2 chances at 2:45pm, 3:45pm)
• Pie Eating Contest (1 contest at 4:00pm)
• Hooters Wing Eating Contest (1 contest at 4:20pm)
• Mullet Pageant (at 5:00pm)
• ‘Stache Pageant (at 5:30pm)
• Redneckiest Tattoo (at 6:00pm)

Winners will literally become “red necks,” with medal awards strung on red ribbon. The winner with most medals will win a new $1,000 smoker from Green Mountain Grills.
