Insights

This marketing collaboration between TUMS and DraftKings represents a clever fusion of sports entertainment and consumer health products, though its financial impact is likely minimal relative to HLN's overall operations. The $40,000 prize pool is a modest marketing expense that should generate social media buzz and brand engagement during the high-visibility Super Bowl period.

The survey data revealing that 54% of viewers prioritize game day food and 25% experience heartburn presents a targeted marketing opportunity. The partnership with former NFL player Vince Wilfork and the Fantasy Foodball Pool gamification strategy effectively connects with the core demographic of sports fans aged 21-43 who are likely to experience occasional heartburn from game day indulgences.

While creative, this campaign's direct revenue impact will be It's primarily a brand awareness play designed to maintain TUMS' market position in the highly competitive over-the-counter antacid category rather than a significant business driver.

Each round of TUMS Fantasy Foodball Pool features the top foods and drinks selected by a survey of 2,000 Americans*, ensuring plates will be filled with the most popular options, including the top 10 foods on respondents' Big Game plates: barbecue (34%), hot wings (33%), seven-layer dip (24%), brownies (22%), chicken tenders/nuggets (22%), nachos (21%), pizza (20%), buffalo chicken dip (20%), fries (17%) and mini sliders and/or burgers (16%).

To bring the delicious combination of football and food to the table, TUMS has partnered with former two-time professional football champion and food enthusiast, Vince Wilfork. An avid cook, Wilfork will lend his expertise from the field to the table and share his personal experience with tackling occasional heartburn.

"Nothing should stand between fans and their favorite foods, especially on gameday, so I'm thrilled to partner with TUMS to help foodies like me celebrate without the worry of heartburn getting in the way," said Wilfork, who is a brand fan and user himself. "Since leaving the field, I never watch a game without my must-have foods, like brisket and ribs that are grilled low and slow, hot wings, sliders and brownies, my favorite dessert. When these occasionally cause heartburn, I reach for TUMS for fast relief."

TUMS has reinvigorated its free-to-play pool concept with DraftKings to create TUMS Fantasy Foodball Pool and give fans an engaging way to bring food to the forefront of gameday.

"The fans have spoken - food is clearly a big part of any football watch party, and we're thrilled to give them a competitive way to celebrate their love of gameday bites," said Patricia Melo, Brand Director for TUMS. "Although the foods we love can occasionally lead to symptoms of heartburn, TUMS provides fast relief, allowing fans to feel rest-assured that they won't have to sideline their fun."

"We learned first-hand just how passionate fans are about food as a result of our successful collaboration with TUMS last year," said Jay Danahy, Head of Revenue, DraftKings Media & Sponsorships. "We're thrilled to be working with TUMS once again, giving food fans a new way to engage on game day centered around their most valuable plate picks and a free shot at winning a share of cash prizes."

In addition to providing fans with an opportunity to indulge in their food plate fantasies, TUMS will kick off Big Game Weekend in the heart of the New Orleans food and libations culture with an event taking place at Bourbon Heat on Feb. 7. Open to the public, attendees will have the opportunity to try samples of TUMS Chewy Bites, enjoy exclusive merch and giveaways (while supplies last), and learn how to play the final round of the free TUMS Fantasy Foodball Pool.
