Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. has set the Guinness World Record for constructing the World’s Largest Game of Cornhole. The tiremaker constructed the super-sized game to commemorate the 80th Annual Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic on New Year’s Eve in Arlington, Texas.

Students from Michigan State University and University of Alabama played the game using a 64-foot by 32-foot cornhole board and threw beanbags from the Goodyear Blimp Wingofoot One from more than 200 feet above the game board.

Goodyear constructed the cornhole board at its Goodyear Blimp base in Pompano Beach, Fla.

Michigan State University and University of Alabama faced off in the College Football Playoff Semifinal at the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, with Alabama taking the win.

O’Reilly Automotive introduced BrakeBest Select Pro – its next generation of brake pad design. Designed for newer model domestic vehicles, the company said these pads are engineered with input from professional technicians to offer a quiet stop, easy break-in and complete corrosion resistance.

O’Reilly Automotive said the signature blue break-in coating not only reduces break-in time, it also prevents future pulsation or vibration. The pads contain five layers of noise-canceling shims and the rotors are machined and balanced to a higher tolerance than others and will perform longer due to the corrosion-resistant coating that covers the entire surface, the company said.
