One fan will get an opportunity to experience college sports at their finest and get paid to do it.

Pizza Hut, a subsidiary of Yum! Brands, said Tuesday that it would begin accepting applications for a new "Pizza Hut All-American" position after agreeing to become the "official pizza partner of the NCAA."

The job will pay a super-fan $50,000 to travel to as many Division I NCAA championship games as possible during the 2016-17 season and document the experience through social media.

There was no direct mention of "free pizza" as a potential job perk, but the official job description says "this lucky individual will travel the country bringing the pizza and the energy to pizza loving sports fans all over this great nation."

"This is one of those rare once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to experience something that no one has done before," said David Daniels, vice president of media and advertising at Pizza Hut.

The company says that the ideal candidate should be passionate, outgoing and social media savvy. Interested sports fans are asked to apply online before the deadline of Nov. 6.
