The countdown to the FIFA World Cup Championships has begun and thanks to a new partnership with Budweiser Beer and the Bahamian Brewery & Beverage Company, one lucky Soccer fan here in The Bahamas will have the opportunity to see one of the most highly anticipated games unfold live, as it happens at the Otkritie Arena in Moscow, Russia.

Heralded globally as the most prestigious association soccer tournament in the world, the World Cup has and continues to attract millions of viewers surpassing even the Olympic Games. This year, the organization marks its 21st anniversary, with 32 countries participating including Iceland and Panama which will make their debut during this year’s world cup games. Here at home, the Bahamas continues to experience a similar surge in the number of Bahamians now being drawn to the sport as well.

“As the official distributor of Budweiser Beer in the Bahamas, we are very excited to give beer and soccer fans the opportunity to see the game up close and personal” said Executive Marketing Manager Wellington Seymour.

The Brewery officially launched the promotion last week, which gives soccer fans a chance to win an all expense paid trip to Russia where they will watch Serbia take on Brazil, in what is expected to be a powerhouse game.

To participate, customers need only to purchase a six-pack of Budweiser Beer from any Jimmy’s Wines and Spirits location in the country or selected independent accounts, fill out the accompanying ticket, attach it to the receipt and place it inside any of the clearly marked boxes.

“Our customers will have until May 20th to enter, after which we will host a huge drawing to announce the winner” Seymour explained.
