SEATTLE, Nov. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2019 Major
League Soccer (MLS) season has been nothing short of thrilling;
records were broken, legends said goodbye and new stars emerged.
The 2019 MLS Cup promises to cap off the year in a similar fashion,
and Captain Morgan wants to help fans join the fun and experience
the action up close. As an official partner of MLS and sponsor of
the 2019 MLS Cup, the spiced rum is promising up to 10 'Morgans'
free tickets for them and up to two friends (21 or over) to watch
the Seattle Sounders take on Toronto FC at CenturyLink Field on
November 10th.
Anyone of legal drinking age with a first, middle or last name
of Morgan* can claim the tickets for their crew by stopping by the
southwest corner of the North Lot near Occidental Ave. outside of
CenturyLink Field between 9:00AM PST and
11:30AM PST on Sunday, November 10th**. If a
lucky Morgan already has tickets to the match, they'll still be
able to swap them out for tickets from the Captain.
"The 2019 MLS season is racing to an exciting finish with two of
the best clubs that soccer has to offer, and we want to make sure
that fans in Seattle are having
fun while it happens," said Christina
Choi, DIAGEO Senior Vice President, Rum, Gin & Tequila.
"We're already thinking about how we can show up even bigger and
better for fans next season, but the MLS Cup is the perfect
capstone for our first year with the league. Everything we
experienced with the fans, the league and our club partners
confirmed this is right where we want to be. As we say, there's
more fun to be had in 2020!"
This isn't the first time the Captain has stepped up for MLS
fans – and it won't be the last. At the 2019 MLS All-Star Game,
supporters that were U.S. residents, 21+ and answered in some
capacity to 'Morgan' were also able to claim tickets for their own
crews to that star-studded match in Orlando. Captain Morgan has had fans on its
mind since it became the official spiced rum of MLS and the
league's exclusive spirits partner earlier this season.
No Purchase Necessary. Must be 21 or older. Official rules and
details for receiving tickets can be found at
www.MorganMLSCupContest.com. For more fun from the MLS Cup and all
season long next year, follow @CaptainMorganUSA on Instagram and
@CaptainMorganUS on Twitter. Whether you're taking in the match at
the stadium or watching it from the pub with friends, always enjoy
Captain Morgan responsibly. Captain's orders!
*As shown on photo ID. Must be legal U.S. resident &
otherwise eligible as per Official Rules. Up to a total of 10
'Morgans' and their crews will be selected, for a maximum number of
30 tickets.
**Tickets available while supplies last. Award of tickets
subject to verification by independent judges.
