Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins may not be playing in the Super Bowl this year at Allegiant Stadium, but he’s planning on make one fan’s week with a surprise appearance in Las Vegas.

Tost by Tostitos will open Feb. 8 near the Brooklyn Bridge at New York, New York Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas just ahead of the Super Bowl. 

Fans can reserve their spots for lunch and dinner to eat Tostitos-inspired meals. 

Frito-Lay will offer three different menus with a wide range of options.

Cousins will swap his helmet for a chef’s hat and help prepare some of the meals. One fan will win the grand prize of a trip to Las Vegas, accommodations in the city, a pair of tickets to the 2024 Super Bowl and a VIP reservation at the pop-up restaurant with Cousins serving them tableside.

“It’s a fun concept. I’m excited to be a part of it. I, like so many football fans, grew up eating Tostitos and having their salsa dips and queso dips. It’s a natural fit for me,” Cousins told Fox News Digital.

“I can’t do spicy. I’m a wimp,” he told Fox News Digital when asked what dip he enjoys with his chip. “I like mild salsa or queso. I could do those two all day long. Never get sick of it. I could probably eat an entire jar — gotta be careful there. But, yeah, the spicy thing, whether it’s wings or salsas, I have a low threshold.”

Reservations for the eatery open Thursday morning. The sweepstakes to win the prize ends Jan. 28.
