Carnival Cruise Lines offering free Rascal Flatts tailgate concert before Cowboys/Giants game on October 19

 is partnering with the Dallas Cowboys to bring Guy Fieri and the country music trio Rascal Flatts to town for a free meet-and-greet.  Anyone with tickets to the October 19 Cowboys/Giants game will have the chance to see the DDD star and Rascal Flatts live at Carnival’s Tailgate Takeover.  A Guy Fieri Burger Battle is planned for 1:45 p.m. (he’s the judge, not the cook) and a Rascal Flatts Concert will start at 2:05 p.m.

Why? Cue the release: “Carnival Cruise Lines recently announced an exclusive, multi-year partnership with the Dallas Cowboys, expanding the cruise operator’s commitment to the Texas market with two year-round ships.  A third ship, Carnival Freedom is being deployed to Galveston, in 2015, bringing the line’s annual passenger counts to 600,000 – more than any other cruise operator.”
