Just announced today a new sponsorship opportunity for the Philadelphia Eagles and we will see what it entails when the season kicks off Thursday.

The NFL season officially kicks off this Thursday as it has done for the past several seasons with Super Bowl Champion. This year, things kick off in Philadelphia for their banner night and for only the second time ever. The Dallas Cowboys will be playing the Philadelphia Eagles week one for the first time since the infamous 'Pickle Juice Game'.

September 3, 2000 as of right now is the hottest game in NFL history. You have to remember, this is the old Texas Stadium with the giant hole in the roof. Kickoff temperature was 109 degrees. Thermometers on the sidelines had certain parts of the field reaching 130 degrees in the sunlight. It became known as the 'Pickle Juice Game' because the Eagles were hydrating with pickle juice instead of water during timeouts to prevent cramping. It worked, they won 41-14.

Dude Wipes Official Sponsor of the Tush Push

The most famous play from the Eagles Super Bowl season was the 'Tush Push'. Which the NFL considered making illegal this year. Twenty two teams voted to ban the play, but you needed twenty four to make it official. So the play will live on this season and Dude Wipes who keeps your tush clean, will officially sponsor the play this coming season.

We will wait and see what happens on Thursday in a short yardage situation. Will it start raining Dude Wipes in the stadium if the Eagles convert that first down. One can only hope.
