Big Red Announces College Basketball Sweepstakes

AUSTIN, Texas — Big Red, America’s original and best-selling red soda, is partnering with ScoreBig.com to give away thousands of dollars in ticket vouchers to Big Red fans. One lucky winner and a friend will be taking in all the festivities, games and madness with an all expense-paid trip to college basketball’s National Championship Weekend in Arlington, TX.

“Big Red fans are very passionate about their basketball,” says Thomas Oh, SVP of Marketing at Big Red, Inc. “By partnering with ScoreBig, we can offer them a chance to experience the rush of being in North Texas for the finals.”

During the promotion, in-store signage will direct consumers to http://www.BigRed.com/ScoreBig to enter to win the trip. And to make the offer a little sweeter, every entrant will receive $15 off tickets at ScoreBig.com. Eleven runner-ups will receive vouchers valued between $50 and $200 to use at ScoreBig.com. If by chance sports are not your cup of tea then ScoreBig also offers discounts on concert, theater, and family attraction tickets.

The promotion begins February 15th and runs through March 21, 2014. Sweepstakes open to U.S. customers only and offered only while supplies last. Restrictions apply. Please visit BigRed.com/ScoreBig for complete offer rules and information.
