P&G kicks off NFL Facebook contest

CINCINNATI — Procter & Gamble on Monday announced its Vicks-brand NyQuil and DayQuil will pick up on its “Most Dedicated Fan” Contest with Drew Brees, quarterback for the New Orleans Saints. The Facebook contest will reward the NFL’s most dedicated fan who never misses a moment of the season with two tickets to Super Bowl XLVI.

“Vicks continues to work with the NFL to recognize fans whose dedication to the football season matches our dedication to providing fans and players with the cold and flu symptom relief products they’ve come to rely on,” stated Andy Cipra, brand manager of Vicks North America.

“In the NFL there are no sick days, and that remains true for both the players and fans,” Brees said. “I’m excited to partner with Vicks NyQuil and DayQuil for a second year on the ‘Most Dedicated Fan’ contest. ... Fans are such an integral part of the game, and we’re looking to reward the most dedicated and enthusiastic fans in the NFL.”

This year, Vicks wants to hear how NFL fans out-cheer the opposing team in the stands by submitting a personalized fan rally cry. One fan from each of the 32 NFL teams will be chosen as a semi-finalist to face off for a trip to Super Bowl XLVI. Each entrant also will receive a promo code to NFLshop.com.

The search begins Sept. 26 and a winner will be chosen Jan. 10. For more information, visit Facebook.com/NyQuil.
