Duke’s Mayo Bowl coaches Shane Beamer, Mack Brown agree to take mayo bath if team wins

The Duke’s Mayo Bowl created buzz earlier in December by announcing that the bowl will give $10,000 to the winning team’s charity of choice if Duke’s mayonnaise is dumped after the game on the winning coach.

The Mayo Bowl’s executive director Danny Morrison announced the news in a video on Selection Sunday. It was annoucned that North Carolina and South Carolina will play against one another on December 30.

North Carolina’s Mack Brown and South Carolina’s Shane Beamer have both agreed to take a mayo bath if their team wins, per The Athletic’s Nicole Auerbach, and that will certainly create a viral moment for the bowl (and great marketing for the mayonnaise brand).

Both Mack Brown and Shane Beamer have said they'll accept a mayo bath if their team wins this year's @DukesMayoBowl, and I love them both for this
