Following the debut of its Super Bowl ad that featured a teen boy and his Jason Alexander hoodie that was desperately in need of a run through the washer, Tide announced that it would be giving fans the opportunity to win one of the hilarious sitcom star hoodies.
The contest is open to US residents 18 years and older, and all participants need to do is make a contribution to a good cause to have their name entered. The contest is currently open on Tide's Charity Hoodie website, where making a contribution of $5, $10, or $25 is a simple click away. All contributions are divided evenly between two organizations: Feeding American and Matthew 25: Ministries.
The contest will remain open until February 10th, 11:59PM.
