Jack Stack will initially partner with NCAA athletes Connor Bazelak and Skylar Thompson, with plans to partner with more men and women college athletes throughout the Midwest
OVERLAND PARK, KAN., October 15, 2021 ¬– Fiorella’s Jack Stack Barbecue is proud to announce its support of college quarterbacks Connor Bazelak and Skylar Thompson. Announced as part of a new “be remarkable” campaign, these partnerships will kick off a series of Jack Stack-sponsored stories that highlight select individuals who put in work to achieve remarkable – both in life and on the field.
“Everything we do in our business points to the belief that our guests deserve a remarkable experience,” said Travis Carpenter, President at Fiorella’s Jack Stack Barbecue. “In our world, that means going the extra mile to create a product that’s worthy of a place in people’s hearts and minds. These athletes can relate because they do it every day.”
Marked by key activations across social media and in-person events, Jack Stack hopes to provide a platform for remarkable humans – ranging from athletes to artists ¬– to tell their stories and share their experiences. Among those remarkable humans is Kansas State University Quarterback Skylar Thompson of Independence, MO – an athlete who has put in the work to create a legacy of endurance, grit, and determination throughout his collegiate career.
“Growing up in Kansas City, I’ve always taken pride in representing where I’m from, so to be able to partner with Jack Stack is a blessing because of their standard of excellence in KC. I’m so excited to partner with Jack Stack and I really appreciate how they’ve allowed me to involve my incredible teammates.”
With appearances in the 2016 Texas Bowl, 2017 Cactus Bowl, and 2019 Liberty Bowl, Thompson’s dedication has earned him on-field awards such as 2019 Honorable Mention All-Big 12, as well as impressive off-field awards like 2020 Jason Witten Man of the Year Semifinalist and 2020 First Team Academic All-Big 12.
Also featured on Jack Stack’s remarkable roster is University of Missouri Quarterback Connor Bazelak of Dayton, Ohio. A 2021 team captain and the 2020 SEC Co-Freshman of the Year, Bazelak has proven remarkable both on and off the field. The Missouri QB has also shined in the classroom as he was named to the 2020 SEC Academic Honor Roll.
“Being remarkable both as a player and, more importantly, as a person is something I’ve always strived to do,” said Bazelak. “It’s great to work with a brand that holds the same values as I do and to be able to showcase that in such an authentic way. Jack Stack has fully leaned in to supporting initiatives that are important to me, like providing special dinners for my O-Line, and I’m really excited to be one of their first college ambassadors.”
Jack Stack is proud to support remarkable through partnerships like this one – and plans to leverage its platform to partner with more men and women college athletes in the months ahead.
