The GAPF’s, Green, stated he was very pleased that Popeye’s accepted their request to partner with the federation. “We want to welcome you on board with us and to let you know that as a federation we trust that this will be the beginning of a long and fruitful partnership.”
Popeye’s representative Tameshwar Prashad offered brief remarks: “We are very pleased and happy to be onboard for the Senior Nationals since we feel this fast growing and successful sport which has produced two locally grown World Champions amongst others in such a short time shares a similarity as Popeye’s which started over 40 years ago in New Orleans, Louisana, from one small Restaurant and one big idea into a craze that swept the Nation and the World.”
