Every year as January comes to a close, sports fans, brands and consumers across America prepare for one of the biggest sporting events of the year: the Super Bowl. 

Heineken USA, White Plains, N.Y., is upping the ante on game day with its What’s Your Play? portfolio retail program running from Jan. 1 to Feb. 28 during the football playoff weeks and the Super Bowl. 

Dos Equis, a brand of White Plains, N.Y.-based Heineken USA and the first Official Beer Sponsor of the College Football Playoff (CFP), is encouraging fans to go for "Game Day Greatness" this season as part of the brand's commitment to premiumize and elevate the game day experience, the company says. 

After premiering a trailer of The Most Interesting Man in the World last month, Dos Equis, a brand of White Plains, N.Y.-based Heineken USA, released a full-length commercial, “Airboat,” which reveals more of the character’s mystique and depth. In this latest installment, viewers ride full throttle alongside The Most Interesting Man and discover more about his legend, as he races airboats down sand dunes and spars in Samurai armor, the company says. 

Dos Equis, a brand of White Plains, N.Y.-based Heineken USA, released a feature film-style trailer, titled “Cantina,” that reveals a glimpse of the new Most Interesting Man in the World. Timelessly masculine, the new Most Interesting Man is edgier and more daring, and fans can rest assured this is merely the first look at him, the company says. In October, Dos Equis will release “Challenger,” a full-length commercial that will illuminate how interesting has evolved and how the new character continues to embody the legendary status, it adds. 

Dos Equis, a brand of White Plains, N.Y.-based Heineken USA and the Official Beer Sponsor of the College Football Playoff (CFP), is inviting legal drinking aged consumers and college football fans alike to make Dos Equis their beer of choice throughout the college football season through its new comprehensive, 360-degree retail and on-premise program. The season-long promotion, which includes TV commercials, digital and mobile partnerships, program-specific limited-edition packaging and special offers, will drive consumers to local retail and on-premise outlets to purchase Dos Equis and enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a VIP experience at the CFP National Championship in Tampa Bay, Fla., the company says.

White Plains, N.Y.-based Heineken USA announced it is upping the stakes on game day with its What’s Your Play? retail program that will run from Jan. 1 to Feb. 28. The comprehensive program includes eye-catching football-themed point-of-sale (POS) materials, digital partnerships, a Twitter-driven sweepstakes and cross-merchandising opportunities to inspire men of legal drinking age around the world to up their game by choosing Heineken, Heineken Light, Dos Equis, Tecate, Tecate Light and Strongbow Hard Ciders for their game day celebrations, the company says.

This football season, Atlanta-based The Coca-Cola Co.’s Coke Zero brand is celebrating the countdown to each week’s game day with a new, fully integrated campaign. The campaign celebrates the countdown culture of stocking up for tailgate party foods, singing fight songs at pep rallies, and making signs to cheer on a favorite team while integrating traditional media, social media engagement and ESPN’s “College GameDay” TV show for a second year.
