Last year, Carmen “CarCar” Petaccio and George “Georgie” Gutierrez faced off in one of recorded history’s most competitive and exhaustive battles for a single frozen margarita, The CarCar v Georgie NFL Showdown for All the Margaritas. The competitors were challenged to predict the outcomes of every regular season NFL game, accounting for spreads, every week. Now, with another NFL season looming, the competitors have stepped back into the salted rim octagon to battle for margarita immortality. Will Carmen rise? Will Georgie fall? Will Georgie rise and Carmen fall? Who will take that first victorious dram of marg, seventeen weeks from today? Tune in every week to find out! And remember: y tu mama tambien.
