Visit South Walton will give one lucky fan a pair of tickets to the BCS National Championship game, to be held in New Orleans on January 9, 2012. This highly coveted prize is the Florida Gulf Coast beach destination’s way of saying thank you to loyal visitors. “Just as our visitors have their favorite South Walton beach, they also have their favorite NCAA team,” said Visit South Walton executive director Dawn Moliterno. “With this year’s matchup featuring SEC teams LSU and Alabama, we know our visitors are particularly eager to see the action first-hand. We are grateful that our loyal visitors returned to our beaches in record numbers this season and thought this would be a fun and exciting way to express our thanks.”
Entering the contest is easy. From your desktop, simply go to facebook.com/visitsouthwalton, and click the Giveaways tab in the left column. There is a limit of one entry per email address. The deadline to enter is noon EST/11 a.m. CST on Tuesday, December 27. One winner will be selected at random and notified via email by 5 p.m. EST/4 p.m. CST on that same day. The winner must submit an Affidavit of Eligibility to collect the prize. Complete contest rules are available on the contest entry page.
This is not the first time South Walton has awarded a major prize to Facebook fans. In October, the destination wrapped up its Find Your Perfect Beach contest, featuring nearly $100,000 in prizes, including a week-long, all-expenses-included beach vacation to the grand prize winner. “We value our social media fans and will continue to look for ways to reward them for their interaction and loyalty to South Walton,” noted Moliterno.
South Walton’s 15 distinct beach neighborhoods are a popular destination for NCAA football fans throughout the southeast and beyond. This season, several neighborhoods including Seaside, Rosemary Beach and Sandestin staged tailgating parties for fans to cheer for their favorite teams while visiting their perfect beach. South Walton will be a featured destination in the official 2012 BCS National Championship Game Program distributed at the event.
