For 21+ NFL fans, the season starts with Bud Light! Nothing embodies the excitement of the start of a new NFL season better than the crack of the first beer. That’s why the beer brand that has become synonymous with football is getting fans across the country hyped-up for the upcoming season.
“As the official beer sponsor of the NFL and the #1 best-selling beer brand in America, we know there is nothing quite like the excitement of football season coming back,” said Alissa Heinerscheid, Vice President of Marketing for Bud Light. “We’re helping fans everywhere start the season right, bringing to life the magical sound of a crisp Bud Light being opened and kickstarting the best time of year.”
To kick off the NFL season and excite fans no matter where they are, Bud Light is bringing the harmonious sound of Bud Light being cracked open to life with “Kickoff Beers.” Featuring NFL stars Travis Kelce and George Kittle, “Kickoff Beers” remixes an iconic NFL theme song using the sound of Bud Light’s being opened. There will be a :15 version of the spot that will broadcast nationally throughout the duration of the NFL season.
