Chick-fil-A Debuts Family Game Show: Play it Forward: A Chick-fil-A Original Series

Game Time That Gives Back
Each 30-minute episode of Play it Forward follows one family as they take on a variety of fun and physical challenges – with a heartwarming pay-it-forward style twist in the end:

• The Show: Hosted by Chick-fil-A local Owner-Operator, Andrew Allman, each episode challenges families in a variety of physical games, all featuring a unique spin on popular sports and skills, introducing games like Splashketball and Cherry Launch.
• The Prize: Each family will compete to gift all their winnings to a local unsung hero in their life — a veteran, mentor, or an everyday community changemaker who's made a difference to their family.
• The Surprise: At the end of each episode, the family shares an emotional reveal, surprising their honoree by giving away all their winnings, which vary tied to their performance in the game.
