A Unique Super Bowl Experience Unveiled by Marriott
As the anticipation for Super Bowl LIX builds in New Orleans, NFL fans were treated to an unexpected spectacle on February 5, 2025. Marriott Bonvoy and Courtyard by Marriott orchestrated an exciting event, integrating a quest that had attendees doing double takes on the vibrant streets of the French Quarter. Using the charm of NFL star Jason Kelce, they unleashed 25 lookalikes throughout the city, all vying to award one lucky duo with a remarkable football prize: the coveted Super Bowl Sleepover Suite.
The Contest: "Find the Real Jason Kelce"
The contest, creatively dubbed "Find the Real Jason Kelce," challenged five spirited fan duos from across the nation. They were tasked with locating the genuine Jason Kelce amidst a throng of lookalikes, all while navigating the lively atmosphere of the French Quarter. After an electrifying search, the contestants discovered that Maris and Donnovan from Texas had successfully identified the actual Kelce, winning not only bragging rights but also a night spent in a luxury suite converted for the Super Bowl at Caesars Superdome.
"As Marriott Bonvoy and Courtyard by Marriott's first-ever Fanbassador, I was thrilled to bring this ultimate challenge to life and reward the true fans of football," remarked Kelce. He added, "The Sleepover Suite is among the most extraordinary experiences I’ve seen at the Super Bowl, and I couldn’t be more excited for the winners!"
A Week of Jason Kelce Lookalikes
Notably, the dedicated lookalikes will continue to engage with fans throughout the Super Bowl week as they transform into their own 'Fanbassadors.' As visitors flock to New Orleans for the iconic event, they'll easily spot groups of Jasons throughout the city, offering fans opportunities to engage and win exclusive merchandise, gift cards, and more.
"Our collaboration with the NFL seeks to foster unforgettable experiences for football enthusiasts, and partnering with Jason Kelce allowed us to elevate this goal in fun and innovative ways," said Peggy Roe, EVP + Chief Customer Officer at Marriott International. She further highlighted, "Unleashing dozens of Jason Kelce lookalikes in New Orleans is the perfect way to cap off an unforgettable season for fans."
Experience the Sleepover Suite
The Super Bowl Sleepover Suite, which has become a beloved tradition over the years, transforms a luxurious suite within the stadium into a unique hotel room setting. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity allows one fortunate duo to wake up in the stadium on Super Bowl Sunday, ensuring they are among the first fans to experience the electrifying atmosphere on game day.
Ever since it began, this event has solidified Marriott Bonvoy and Courtyard by Marriott's long-standing connection with the NFL, drawing in faithful football fans eager for an unparalleled game-day experience.
