2022 FINAL CHASE RECAP!

The ACL Nationals Event, The Final Chase, in Chicago Illinois ended in epic proportions for 2 of Gladiator Cornhole Gear’s sponsored players.

Records Broken

Mark Richards fought his way to 1st place in men's singles and Mark and Philip Lopez Jr battled their way to the Men’s Pro’s finals aired on CBS July 4, 2022. the nail-biting match against father-son team, Derek & Josh Holland, Mark and Philip made cornhole history while winning the title for the Final Chase Pro Doubles. The rookie duo played a perfect game with Mark scoring 36 out of 36 consecutive Gladiator King Cheetah Bags landing in the hole. The previous record for this was 31. Philip clinched the last round with an amazing shot to end the game and solidified Mark’s perfect game! 

Let Me Introduce To You...

We are extremely grateful that Gladiator bags got to be part of Richards and Lopez’s feat. To celebrate this monumental achievement, we would like to introduce to you the all new 36 logo which will be a representation of this exciting achievement for Team Gladiator and Gladiator bags. You will see this logo on all of the 2023 King Cheetahs as well as on additional merchandise which will be released soon, and we will continue to celebrate this until the record is broken once more. 

We could not be more proud of Mark and Philip this season. Both have been standout players and we will be cheering for you at the World Championships!
