Students, fans, and community members alike will be at tailgates to prepare for the big game. Host a branded tailgate where you offer free food and activities. The food or giveaways will attract fans to your tent and allow you to expose your brand to the market.
2. Give Out Free Swag
Students will happily accept free items that showcase their school’s superiority against a rival. So for brands looking for free marketing, free swag giveaways for fans to wear at games is a great idea. Many pictures taken at these games, with branded swag, guarantee exposure. And this is very likely to be shared via social channels. Popular products include the #1 foam finger, cups, shirts, hats, and much more.
3. Offer Weather Friendly Gear
Some games will be held in northern states where the temperatures are lower, won’t deter students from attending games. Make the experience more comfortable by offering branded harm warmers, long sleeves, or other warm items. For games in the heat, provide fans, water bottles, etc.
