MSG Networks Food Week showcases the bond of food and sports
Are you ready for Food Week? MSG Networks are hosting a week filled with food-themed programming. Everyone knows that food and sports are a winning combination.
MSG Networks understand that food and sports go hand in hand. Whether it is a delicious meal while watching a game in person or the ultimate food spread for catching a game at home, food is and always will be an integral part of sports. During its Food Week programming, the networks will highlight favorite foods from some talented players.
The New York area is an amazing food destination. From the local deli to a celebrity chef restaurant, every street has a cornucopia of delicious food choices. While food is a tie that binds, everyone does have a favorite meal, restaurant or even junk food. Those likes make a connection between people who we may know from afar, like the athletes on our favorite sports teams.
In the special Food Week programming, the Networks are looking to engage fans through everyone’s love of food. Wouldn’t you love to know that your favorite basketball player is obsessed with that deli which you see on your way to work every day? This takeover shows that people are just as passionate about food as they are about their favorite sports teams.
