One day, JayJay and Reid were hanging out, as we often do, and we began discussing burritos; this also happens quite frequently…

JayJay is the official Burrito Relations person for Panchero’s. In case you haven’t had the pleasure of being introduced to JayJay, just check out the video for a brief introduction.

So, as JayJay and I were discussing burritos and relations, we came upon a wonderful realization: “there are a lot of people out there who truly love Panchero’s.” I’m talking, would walk eight miles in an Iowa snow storm for a taste of that fresh-pressed goodness. I’m referring to the person who celebrates Bob’s birthday every April, and forces their friends to do so as well. Maybe get their burrito combination tattooed somewhere on their body? …nah, too far. Anyway, you die-hard fans know who you are. But we don’t. So, we want to know who you are.

We found one hiding out in Xavier high-school not too long ago.

Meet JayJay

What an Ambassador Does

Love Panchero’s.
Find others who want to love Panchero’s.
Hang out and love Panchero’s together.
Send us some photos of you and your friends at Panchero’s.
Maybe take a video of a recent late night road trip you took to Panchero’s
Whatever it is, just keep us informed of how and why you are loving the Panch!

Why be an Ambassador

The biggest advantage of becoming a Panchero’s Burrito Relations Official Ambassador is that you become JayJay’s best friend. You have a hook-up inside the Panchero’s mainframe. JayJay is a good guy to know in the burrito business. (and just a good guy in general, too)

JayJay loves to give away shirts and other Panchero’s swag. But, he is also always running around Iowa for different events. Guess who will be the first to know when JayJay is holding a Panchero’s related event in your area? That’s right, the burrito ambassadors. Guess who’s friends are going to be very excited when you tell them about said event; whether it be a #burritoUP with JayJay and I, free burritos at a tailgate or one of our $1 burrito events? Again, the answer is you… if you’re a burrito ambassador!

How to become an Ambassador

If you’re still reading, it’s because you’re a Panchero’s fanatic and after reading some of the perks to becoming a burrito ambassador, you’re very interested about how to obtain this elusive status in society.

Well, JayJay and I are only two people, so we are trying to unroll this status to as many high-school and college students in the area as we an right now. We will continue to expand this awesome idea as we see a demand for it in certain areas. So start demanding it! If you would like to be a Burrito Relations Official Ambassador, shoot JayJay an email(JayJay@pancheros.com) and tell him why you would make a good ambassador. Remember, the one requirement is that you must be a die-hard Panchero’s fan, so make sure he knows that! Shoot a video, take some photos of you snuggling your burrito, maybe write a love letter, it’s entirely up to you.

New Ambassadors from each school or area will be chosen once a quarter, so you can submit entries a few times in case you are not selected in the first round of ambassadors.

So, there it is! The new Burrito Ambassador status from Panchero’s. If you have other questions, you can always fire an email to me (reidt@pancheros.com) or the man himself, JayJay(@pancheros.com).
