College football season is officially upon us, which means it’s time to spend your Saturdays kicking back and watching the game — or at a tailgate with other fans. One way to make your game watching even more enjoyable? Ordering food, drinks and other fan must-haves. This season, DoorDash is making that easier for you, so that you can focus on the important stuff — like watching your team kick that winning field goal or destroying the other team’s offense.
Through November 8, DoorDash is rewarding fans and allowing them to earn up to $100 in savings when they use DoorDash to enhance their football-watching experience. Learn all about how you can get in on that savings below.

How to make game day easy with DoorDash
Planning to watch the game at home? DoorDash can help deliver last-minute hosting needs — think paper towels, disposable plates, cleaning supplies, and more — in under an hour. And, of course, you can’t forget about the food. DoorDash makes it easy to order gameday favorites like pizza, wings, sandwiches from popular local spots or national chains like Domino’s, WingStop and more. You can also stock up on things like chips, dips, beer and seltzer from places like Target and Walmart. Some of the best things about using DoorDash on game day:
- You can order everything at once right from the DoorDash app without having to visit many different stores or websites.
- Orders can be scheduled in advance.
- There are thousands of different merchants and products available to choose from.
- You can DoubleDash your order to get food, drinks and supplies from more than one place — and have everything delivered together.
DoorDash can also help those who have tailgating plans. Coolers, foldable tables, Bluetooth speakers, grills and more from top retailers like Dick’s Sporting Goods, Home Depot and Best Buy are all just a click away and available for quick delivery.
Translation: DoorDash helps you focus on the game by making it simple to get everything you need as fast as possible.
Take advantage of DoorDash streaks
A number of restaurants —including Burger King and Taco Bell — will be offering exclusive deals via DoorDash all season long. But there is another big way to save, too. From August 23 through November 18, you can score up to $100 in savings when you order on game days.
All you have to do is sign up for DoorDash Streaks and start ordering. As you order, you’ll unlock the following discounts:
- Place your first Saturday order and get 10% off a future order
- Place three more orders on a Saturday and get 40% off a future order
- Place another three orders on a Saturday and get 50% off a future order
- Place another three orders on a Saturday and get 60% off a future order
You can order from any DoorDash category — like restaurants, grocery, alcohol, retail and beyond and your streaks are progressive and don’t have to be consecutive. In other words, if you miss a week, you can come back the following week and you won’t have lost where you are in your streak.
Sign up for DashPass to save even more
Signing up for DoorDash’s DashPass is another way to save. This paid subscription offers members exclusive benefits that are not available to those with a standard DoorDash account. A DashPass membership costs $9.99/month or $96/year and these perks and savings include:
- $0 delivery fees on all eligible orders
- Reduced fees on eligible on-demand grocery, restaurant, convenience, and alcohol orders
- Exclusive discounts and special menu offers throughout the year
- 5% back in DoorDash credits on eligible pickup orders
- Priority customer support
- Special Lyft benefits, such as 10% off scheduled airport Lyft rides, 5% off on-demand Lyft rides and two free Priority Pickup upgrades per month
Football must-haves available on DoorDash
Whether you’re hosting a viewing party from your living room or tailgating, these items make the experience better — and they’re all available through DoorDash.
