Want to cheer on the Atlanta Hawks somewhere other than your own couch, but don’t want to trek to State Farm Arena? You’re in luck.
Budweiser and the Atlanta Hawks have teamed up to launch a “bar network” across metro Atlanta, where fans can watch the games together and indulge in drink deals and special events.
According to the Hawks' website, the bars have committed to showing Hawks games through the remainder of the season.
Each bar will also host a “pop-a-shot” contest on select dates, winning contestants from every location will snag tickets to the Hawks game on Feb. 28.
“Through our partnership with Budweiser, we have been able to bring fans together for memorable moments,” Chief Revenue Officer Andrew Saltzman said in a press release. “This bar network gives us an opportunity to unify people through Hawks games and give them a place where they can cheer for the team with other Hawks fans when we are on the road.”
It's not the first time the Hawks and Anheuser-Busch have teamed up. Earlier this season, the two entities came together to launch the limited-edition Big Boi Tall Boy cans.
The participating bars span from Kennesaw to Stockbridge. For a full list of upcoming events, you can visit the bar network website here.
“This has been a great opportunity for us to get closer to Hawks fans in Atlanta and expand Budweiser’s presence with the team outside of the arena walls,” Matt Davis, director of Budweiser Sports Marketing, said in a statement. “Now, throughout Atlanta, a piece of the excitement from State Farm Arena can still be felt while the team is on the road.”
