Eat The [GOAT](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chili-crisp-condiment) is a new campaign from Frank's [RedHot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thats-redhot), and with the help of hip-hop legend Ludacris, the beloved hot sauce brand is on a mission to turn the Big Game into a full-on flavor showcase.

This campaign sees one of the most iconic acronyms in music and sports culture—"Greatest Of All Time"—turned into something fans can do: eat. The spot features original raps, recipes made into rhymes, as well as the familiar faces of Chingy, DJ Infamous, Shawnna, and I-20, and other surprises like a rapping goat. Centered on creativity and flavor, the ad inspires fans to top off their game day favorites with "The GOAT of hot sauce," whether they're savoring saucy wings or another finger food favorite.
