Saquon Barkley, the world championship-winning running back for the Philadelphia Eagles, has teamed up with Wawa, a fresh food and beverage retailer, to surprise fans with hoagies in a new ad spot, which dropped today and captures the feel of preparing for the next season and delighting fans.
To celebrate the upcoming football season and the community, Wawa partnered with an Eagles icon to make everyone a winner.
Philly fans were told that someone exciting would be dropping by their neighborhood and making a surprise visit with Wawa.
Fans were amazed to see Barkley in their homes, where he personally handed out hoagies to delighted fans, showcasing his appreciation for Eagles’ fans heading into the new season.
“Consistency is key in everything I do. Wawa and I have that in common,” said Saquon Barkley.
“From training, to diet, to game time, people have to know they can rely on me. No matter what day I’ve had, I know I can always count on Wawa to have what I need, when I need it.”
Celebrating his ties to Philly, hoagies, and Wawa, Barkley has launched an exclusive limited-time Wawa hoagie, “The Saquon,” which is a touchdown for the taste buds of both sandwich and Philadelphia Eagles aficionados.
“The Saquon” is Barkley’s favorite Wawa hoagie order, featuring oven-roasted turkey, American cheese, lettuce, onions, and spicy mustard.
This exciting new offering can be ordered as a hoagie or wrap at all Wawa locations, beginning on Sept. 2.
