Winner Receives 20 Years of Bengals Season Tickets
CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carol Simms of Springdale, Ohio, received the ultimate Bengals fan prize
courtesy of Fifth Third Bank, The Official Bank of the Cincinnati
Bengals. From July 28th through October 17th,
thousands of Bengals fans visited Fifth Third Bank retail locations
throughout Cincinnati, Dayton and Northern Kentucky, registering for the
“Move Into The Jungle” sweepstakes. NO PURCHASE WAS NECESSARY. The
prize: Twenty years of Cincinnati Bengals season tickets in Section
124, Row 20, Seats 1 and 2, for the 2015 through 2034 seasons.
Carol, accompanied by her husband, Ken, and grandson Corban, attended
Bengals practice at Paul Brown Stadium and were presented with
ceremonial tickets by Coach Marvin Lewis and Nate Pasczcykowski,
Marketing Director for Fifth Third Bank (Cincinnati). Bengals players
were on hand to offer their congratulations.
“It’s amazing to be the winners, in all of Cincinnati, of the Fifth
Third Bank ‘Move Into The Jungle’ sweepstakes!,” Carol stated. “My
husband Ken's first reaction was total disbelief. The fact that it's 20
years of season tickets to Bengals games blows our minds! We've
never won anything close to this. And, I've especially admired the
impact Coach Lewis has had on the team during his tenure. We are so
excited and thankful for winning this gift. GO BENGALS!”
“I expect that there might be a little competition in the Simms
household over who gets to attend the games each week,” stated Mike
Michael, President and CEO of Fifth Third Bank (Cincinnati). “When
you’re a Bengals season ticket holder, Paul Brown Stadium and the Jungle
Zone are like your second home. We’re excited for Carol and her family
as they prepare to ‘Move Into The Jungle’ for the next twenty years.”
