Tailgate N Go Family Business Lands Deal with ABC ‘Shark Tank’ Recurring Shark Matt Higgins


First Deaf Entrepreneur in Shark Tank History Appears on Show, Secures a Deal

 

NEW YORK, OCT. 27, 2019 – Colorado family-owned and operated business Tailgate N Go secured a deal with Recurring Shark Matt Higgins, cofounder and CEO of private investment firm RSE Ventures, Sunday night on ABC’s “Shark Tank.” 

Tailgate N Go began with an unorganized camping trip in Colorado. After Ron Johnson and his daughter Taylor (27) and son Kobe (18) unpacked their cluttered totes, the family realized they had forgotten a spatula, salt and oil – the essentials for burgers. With a cluttered picnic table and no other surface to prepare food on, the family realized they needed a better way – so they decided to create a fully equipped dry box that could store all camping essentials and act as a full kitchen. 

Nine prototypes and a year and half of weekend tradeshows later, the Johnsons now have the best portable outdoor kitchen and dry box on the market – so good that it captured the attention of “Shark Tank” and secured a deal with Recurring Shark Matt Higgins.

“Once we found out Matt Higgins was the guest shark, we knew he was our target. Matt’s background in sports and his business experience made him our obvious choice,” Taylor said.

Higgins, who is also vice chairman of the Miami Dolphins, initially said he was “out” on the Tailgate N Go, but after the family made him a counter offer, he jumped back “in” to offer the Johnsons a $250,000 investment for a 20% stake in the business, with a $50 per-unit royalty.  

“The Tailgate N Go is the most elaborate outdoor kitchen and dry box you’ve ever dreamed that has all your tailgating and camping needs covered,” Higgins said. “A grill, a griddle, a burner, a sink, a dry box, a cutting board and more all at once. I can’t wait to work with this amazing family and my sports network to make some magic!”

Kobe, who recently graduated from high school, aspires to launch a company to improve technology for the Deaf. He is the first deaf entrepreneur to appear on “Shark Tank.”

“When we’re done changing the outdoors world with Tailgate N Go in the future, I also want to change the Deaf world, starting with the old technology for the Deaf,” Kobe said. “I want to start a new business that will modernize the Deaf world! Shark Tank is just the beginning!”

Higgins has been on “Shark Tank” since Season 10, when he invested in the Cup Board Pro, the product of late New York firefighter and chef Keith Young.
