FanDuel Faceoff and Rob Gronkowski Launch New Game: Gronk Spike Cornhole
FanDuel has teamed up with former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski to launch a new game named Gronk Spike Cornhole, which can be played for free or with real money.
Gronk Spike Cornhole joins a growing roster of Faceoff games that allow users to play against each other for cash. Based on Gronk’s favorite yard game, Gronk Spike Cornhole gives users the opportunity to test their skills as they compete against Gronk throwing bags to the board by simply dragging their finger across the screen. They can also maximize their points with combos or by pushing Gronk’s bags off the board.
“I am so excited that Gronk Spike Cornhole will be available to FanDuel Faceoff players. I grew up playing cornhole against family and friends, and I was always the ultimate champion. Good luck to all those playing…for bragging rights or cash,” Rob Gronkowski said.
