Our celebrity co-host was Kym Adair, senior vice president of NOVA Home Loans, who talked about the important role that the Bowl plays in the community and why her company decided to get behind it in such a huge way. We also caught up with Bowl executive director Mike Feder, who talked about some of the delicious things planned for Bowl week while offering various scenarios on the teams that could be coming to Tucson. We also heard from Sir Veza’s own Ray Flores, who had some tasty news to share about the pregame Nacho Average Tailgate Festival that will convene 30 local nacho purveyors in a chip-to-chip challenge for the title of Nacho King or Queen!
