MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – The University of Minnesota football team finished the 2024 season three days into 2025 with a 24-10 win over Virginia Tech in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl Friday night, and P.J. Fleck got his celebratory mayo bath after the game.

The bowl game revealed Flavor Flav as its celebrity guest before Fleck sat down. He briefly put on a shower cap before getting booed, then took it off and tossed it aside. Fleck then braced for a Gatorade jug-sized dousing of Duke’s mayonnaise before fully leaning in.

Was it everything he thought it would be?

“Everything and more, it really was. That was the most interesting feeling that I think I’ve ever had in my entire life. I had one of the most exhilarating experiences in the Nascar, that was one of the most unique things I’ve ever done in my entire life,” Fleck said. “I’ll do anything for these guys. We didn’t play our best game of the year, but it was gritty and it was tough.”

Mayo on Dilly bar?

ESPN announcer’s dry heave: If the goal of the game was to promote Duke’s mayonnaise, they took an interesting approach. The ESPN broadcast crew sampled several foods with Duke’s products during the first half, including a mayo and banana sandwich. They also tried mayo on a Dilly bar, and that went just as you would expect it to.
