“Let’s be real, if you want to win those early morning gamedays, you start with the MVP of tailgate foods: Casey’s breakfast pizza,” said DeJean, pro football championship winner and former Iowa college footballer. “Growing up in Iowa, a slice of Casey’s pizza was my favorite after-practice snack. Whether you’re headed to the stadium or rallying from home, it’s the No. 1 tailgate food worth getting up for.”
