The Challenge
Avocados From Mexico wanted to evolve its Big Game digital activation by creating a continuously engaging, utility-driven experience that aligned with modern sports fandom. With fans increasingly watching games on a second screen and craving deeper insight into live action, the brand needed a way to deliver real-time relevance, personalization, and entertainment while still reinforcing guacamole as a centerpiece of game day.

Fans can interact directly with the Guac Guru to explore predictions, gain player insights, and receive personalized content tied to their favorite teams.
