Hungry Games
BYUH Food Truck Competition Fall 2025
Hungry Games aims to create a welcoming social space on campus, support the health and wellbeing of students, and offer meaningful capstone experiences. Through this initiative, we invite students to pitch their best food truck concepts—selecting one standout idea to bring to life as the next food truck on campus.
The Reaping
From more than 50 student teams, only 12 advanced to the next round. When we first launched the competition, just 15 teams applied—but through targeted marketing efforts, including pop-up events, campus collaborations, and digital outreach, we grew participation to over 50 teams in just two days.
The Feast
In a private tasting unlike anything campus had seen before, the 12 teams stepped into the spotlight. They presented their best dishes to the judges—flavors, stories, and passion on full display. In this high-stakes round, only 4 teams earned a place in the finals.
The Arena
The final showdown unfolded inside Banyan Dining Hall. With the crowd gathered and the energy high, we launched a full marketing push to bring students into the moment—and they showed up. More than 250 votes poured in through social media as students rallied behind their favorite competitors. One idea would rise above the rest.
