The lights are warming up. The band is tuning up. The cheerleaders are revving up. And the football action is heating up. It’s Football Friday across the Upper Cumberland and 106-9 Kicks Country is getting you ready.

106-9 Kicks Country’s Football Friday presented by your Cookeville Sam’s Club and DeKalb Prevention Coalition begins Friday night at 5:00. We’ll be setup outside the stadium for two hours packed full of free fun. Bring the kids, tailgate with us, and show your hometown pride.

The kids can expend some of their pregame energy in the Big Bounce Bounce House from Big Bounce of Smithville. The Upper Cumberland Drug Coalition has your chance to win a Go Pro Camera as you walk the red carpet. Try your hand at Shelia’s Slip And Slide or Gator’s Football Throw or Jason and Tony’s Corn(y) Hole to win prizes including a DQ Blizzard.

Plus we’re keeping you hydrated for the big game with free tea from Helen’s Restaurant, snacks from Golden Flake, and ice cream from Purity. It’s all to give you the power to cheer on your DeKalb Tigers. You might even win tickets to see the Vols or Titans – from 106-9 Kicks Country, the home of your two favorite teams every weekend. Free tickets…the only thing close to a Friday night win for the hometown team.

And keep us on your radio as you head to the game as we will be visiting with coaches, players, school leaders, and local celebrities, bringing the spirit of your community to the entire Upper Cumberland. It’s a party and we can’t wait to see you Friday night.
