Fairfield by Marriott, in partnership with former NCAA quarterback Jesse Palmer, has launched 'The Home Field Advantage Contest,' an American-wide campaign designed to celebrate the dedication of college football fans. Through this initiative, fans are "invited to share their most memorable moments, such as long journeys to catch a game or wearing a lucky outfit for years, for a chance to win an exclusive game-day experience." This prize package includes roundtrip flights, game tickets, and VIP access to stadiums.
With "over 1,100 locations across the U.S., Fairfield by Marriott serves as a convenient home base for fans, students, and alumni attending college football events." Additionally, the chain's properties are located near major campuses, such as the University of Georgia, the University of Tennessee, and the University of Texas—ideal for students and fans alike.
The contest runs until November 8, with ten winners receiving personalized game-day experiences at select universities.
