Los Angeles, California-based Wonderful Pistachios has launched a Big Game campaign to make game day snacking easier, whether attending in person or watching from home.
For those traveling to the big game or any related viewing parties, a partnership with rideshare service, Alto, will provide discounted transportation and snacking around Los Angeles over the game day weekend.
Football fans gearing up for game day at home can enter to win an entertainment system through a social media contest, get game day recipe inspiration on Pinterest and stock up on healthy game day snacks at grocery retailers nationwide with larger-than-life football-themed displays.
“Football viewing has always been one of the top consumption occasions for Wonderful Pistachios, so we’re giving consumers near and far something to enjoy while watching the Big Game as it happens in our own backyard,” said Diana Salsa, senior marketing director for Wonderful Pistachios.
“In fact, one out of three Wonderful Pistachios consumers say they eat them while watching sports, with football being the most popular of the sports. You can crack open pistachios to take out some of that game day stress,” she said.
Wonderful Pistachios offer six grams of plant protein and three grams of fiber per each one ounce serving.
The brand offers a variety of flavors, and both classic In-Shell and No Shells options. Wonderful Pistachios No Shells are now available in four award-winning flavors, including sea salt and vinegar and BBQ, along with the roasted and salted and lightly salted varieties.
Wonderful Pistachios provides discounted rides around Los Angeles
Wonderful Pistachios will alleviate transportation woes the weekend of the Big Game with significant discounts toward rides around Los Angeles.
Starting at 9 a.m. PST on Feb. 10 through the end of day on Feb. 14, the brand has partnered with on-demand rideshare company, Alto, for the 56th Big Game to provide visitors and locals alike 56 percent off all Los Angeles rides by Alto’s fleet of elevated SUVs.
