COUSINS & GREEN BAY PACKERS RETURN TO THE FIELD

Team Brings Back ‘Best Seats in the House’ Sweepstakes Starting Aug. 21st

MILWAUKEE (Aug. 21, 2017) – Taking the field for a second season are Wisconsin’s own legacy players—Cousins Subs® and Green Bay Packers. This home state duo has teamed up to bring back the ultimate green and gold fan experience with the ‘Best Seats in the House’ sweepstakes.

Fans are invited to enter the ‘Best Seats in the House’ for a chance to win two tickets to a Packers’ home game at Lambeau Field. Two winners are selected prior to each home game and will get to cheer on the Packers from leather recliners in a special VIP section off the 50-yard line, watch replays from personal TVs and enjoy Cousins Subs catering. Fans can enter daily from Aug. 21 – Dec. 11, 2017 by simply visiting packers.com/bestseats and completing the entry form.

“There’s no greater excitement than being back on the field with the Packers for another season of bringing fans the chance to cheer on their favorite team from the ‘Best Seats in the House,’” said Justin McCoy, vice president of marketing at Cousins Subs. “Last season we had an overwhelming response from fans throughout Wisconsin and cannot wait to see the enthusiasm build as the season kicks off.”

Cousins Subs and the Green Bay Packers entered a three-year partnership at the start of the 2016 season that includes combined promotional tactics across digital, email, social and broadcast mediums. In addition, the Packers highlight the sub shop through in-stadium signage and web-based consumer promotions including the Best Seats in the House sweepstakes, which proved to be a fan favorite in its first year with more than 93,000 entries. However, this is not the first time Cousins Subs teamed up with the Packers as the company was the Official Sub of Lambeau Field in the early 90’s.

“We’re excited to once again team up with Cousins Subs to provide some lucky fans with a special gameday experience with the ‘Best Seats in the House’ sweepstakes,” said Aaron Hart, manager of corporate sales in the Packers’ Milwaukee office. “We’re looking forward to creating even more memorable gamedays for our fans through the contest.”
