Get ready, Colorado! 🚨 The Turkey Tailgate is the ultimate community showdown bringing together food, football, and friendly competition — all for a great cause.
Join Excalibur Outreach as Denver Fire battles Aurora Fire in our frozen turkey drive competition. Let’s see which department can rally the community to bring in the most frozen turkeys to help feed families in need this Thanksgiving! 🥶🦃
And that’s not all… it’s also the FINALS of the Flame-Off Wing Eating Contest! 🔥 Watch as local firefighters who’ve advanced through the roadshow rounds go head-to-head in a wing-eating battle for bragging rights and the championship title.
