“We are thrilled to bring Walk-On’s to Tuscaloosa,” said Franchisee Shane Morrison in a Monday press release. “There’s nothing like our authentic, mouthwatering Cajun cuisine in the area, so I’m confident that Walk-On’s will be a hit. Plus, our game-day atmosphere is perfect for cheering on the Crimson Tide. We’ve hired 200 winning All-American team members and we can’t wait to celebrate our grand opening with everyone next week. Roll Tide!”

The drawing will accept entries for the first month of business, concluding the month of June with a winner announcement the week of the 28th.

Sunday through Thursday: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Friday through Saturday: 11 a.m. to midnight

Walk-On's specializes in Cajun-inspired gameday fare, including fan favorites like "Crawfish Etouffee, Duck & Andouille Gumbo and Krispy Kreme Donut Bread Pudding." For more information on Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux, click here to visit their website.
