– Mars Chocolate North America announced today that its M&M’S® Brand, SNICKERS® Brand, TWIX® Brand, MILKY WAY® Brand and 3 MUSKETEERS® Brand are offering football fans a chance at a once-in-a-lifetime Super Bowl experience. As part of the "Be on the Field 2010 Instant Win Game" promotion, one lucky fan will score an all-expenses-paid trip for four to Super Bowl XLV in North Texas, where he or she will get to celebrate on the field with the newest Super Bowl champion.
To participate in the "Be on the Field 2010 Instant Win Game," fans are encouraged to get Mars real chocolate products for their upcoming playoff and Super Bowl parties. They can then register select UPC codes at
http://www.BeOnTheField.com between December 22, 2009 and February 7, 2010, for their chance to win.
