Patriots and Giants fans might be at odds these days, but there’s at least one thing they’ll both be rooting for during Super Bowl XLVI — the chance to win free pizza from Papa John’s.
The pizza joint announced Monday in a press release that, if fans can correctly predict the winner of the pregame coin toss, all Papa Rewards members will be awarded a free one-topping pizza and a two-liter Pepsi MAX, according to the Business Wire.
“It’s an easy call for Papa John’s to offer a promotion like this to our loyal customers,” said the restaurant’s founder and CEO, John Schnatter. “The Super Bowl is the largest stage in all of sports, and it’s the biggest sales day of the year for us.”
People can vote either heads or tails between now and Feb. 1 on Papa John’s website, and on Feb. 2, Shnatter will announce which side won on NFL Network.
“The pressure is on, America,” said former running back Jerome Bettis, who, along with the Colts’ Peyton Manning, is helping to spread word of the promo. “It’s hard to believe there could be an NFL coin toss with bigger stakes than what I experienced Thanksgiving Day 1998 … but with free Papa John’s and Pepsi MAX on the line for millions of fans in Super Bowl XLVI, this certainly is huge!”
Heads leads the overall count by a 24-21 margin in 45 Super Bowl coin tosses, according to the press release.
