(AKRON, OHIO) July 20, 2024 – Papa Joe’s White French dressing beat other finalist Missing Falls Brewery with a staggering 91% of the fan vote to be named best White French dressing in Akron on July 19 at Canal Park.
Papa Joe’s victory capped an amazing celebration of Akron’s favorite lettuce leaves topper as the RubberDucks largest crowd of the season (8,232) packed Canal Park to watch the Akron White French take on the Richmond Flying Squirrels.

We thank all the participating restaurants and the fans for not only making it a great night at the ballpark but for voting with their bellies to help us crown a true winner.”
