Sponsorship highlighted by social media contest for one lucky winner to bring their starting lineup to Tampa

The University of Minnesota and Sun Country Airlines have partnered to provide an elite Outback Bowl experience for some creative and passionate Gopher fans. To kick off their new sponsorship, the Gophers and Sun Country have partnered together to offer one lucky Gopher fan the chance to bring their starting lineup of 10 friends to the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1, 2020. 

One lucky winner will receive 11 tickets for them and 10 friends to watch the Gophers compete against Auburn in the 2020 Outback Bowl in Tampa, Fla. The winner will also receive 11 roundtrip flights on Sun Country Airlines and two nights hotel accommodations in Tampa, FL (six double occupancy rooms per night) to experience everything the Outback Bowl has to offer.

Entering the competition could not be any easier, as all fans have to do is submit a video of 60 seconds or less explaining why they deserve to take 10 of their friends to the Outback Bowl. To enter, fans only need to post their video to Twitter or Instagram and use the hashtag #sendmystarters. Participants must tag @GopherSports and @SunCountryAir when posting their entries. Full contest rules and additional details can be found at gophersports.com/suncountry  

Fans should be creative and unique with their videos and are encouraged to show their Gopher pride!

Submissions must be posted by 11:59 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 20, and one winner will be selected on Monday, Dec. 23.
