Columbus, Ohio — Nationwide is proud to join the family of official sponsors who support the Pittsburgh Steelers and their loyal fans.
As part of the Nationwide sponsorship, Pittsburgh Steelers fans will have the chance to participate in the World’s Greatest Shoutout, an opportunity for a Steelers fan to verbally support their team, be filmed and broadcast on the Jumbotron during the game. A $25,000 grand prize will be awarded for the World’s Greatest Shoutout at the end of the season.
“The opportunity to team with the six-time Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers and their fans aligns perfectly with Nationwide’s commitment to supporting communities where we do business and to giving best of class service to all of our customers,” said John Aman, associate vice president, strategic sponsorships.
“We welcome Nationwide to the Pittsburgh Steelers official sponsorship team,” said Tony Quatrini, director of marketing. ”Nationwide brings its world class reputation to a team that is known worldwide for its grit and determination. Nationwide is a welcome addition to the Pittsburgh community of athletes, fans and residents who make Steelers Country great.”
Nationwide looks forward to meeting these passionate Steelers fans in person at all the Steelers home games where Nationwide associates will be working the World’s Greatest Shoutout fan contest.
This Pittsburgh Steelers sponsorship opportunity gives Nationwide a platform that aligns with the Pittsburgh community’s passion and team loyalty. Nationwide hopes to raise awareness through the live interactions with fans and add to the overall experience for the thousands of Steelers fans.
Nationwide, like Steelers fans across the country, is gearing up for the season home opener against the Atlanta Falcons on Sept. 12.
