"As gameday rituals continue to evolve, we've found that fans are craving and creating experiences that live up to a new 'home-gating' standard – one that's inclusive, celebratory and filled with delicious cocktails," said Jennifer Holiday Hudson, North America brand leader, Smirnoff. "To be the Cocktail Coordinator, we're looking for fans who not only serve the best Smirnoff cocktails but curate the best gameday experience for their friends and families."
Thousands will apply but only one will be named the first-ever Smirnoff Cocktail Coordinator, scoring "The Best Job in America" and board a private plane bound for Super Bowl LVII as Smirnoff's guest of honor. To help recruit for the position, Smirnoff has lined up an all-star roster of celebrity scouts including Emmy-nominated actor, producer and television host Anthony Anderson, NFL Legend Vernon Davis, and American Sportscasters Charissa Thompson and Kay Adams - all starring in a new series of Smirnoff ads that will run nationwide and on Smirnoff YouTube beginning this month.
"For me, gamedays aren't just about what's happening on the field. It's about bringing that extra vibe with the right mix of drinks, food and people," said Anthony Anderson. "Last year was Smirnoff's first season in the game, and we're turning things up even more as we search to find that one special fan who's all about taking gameday to the next level. Because that's what a Cocktail Coordinator does."
In its second year as the Official Vodka Sponsor of the NFL, Smirnoff is partnering with teams across the league and engaging fans at tailgates throughout the season:
- First up, Smirnoff is helping fans celebrate the season Kickoff at the Los Angeles Rams opening game on September 8 at SoFi Stadium, where tailgaters can apply to be the Cocktail Coordinator and some lucky fans will get to enjoy delicious Smirnoff cocktails with Anthony Anderson and Vernon Davis.
- Smirnoff is also taking over the Magic City when the Miami Dolphins take the field at Hard Rock Stadium on October 23 to honor the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the 1972 Perfect Season.
- Finally, Smirnoff will be in Glendale, Arizona, at State Farm Stadium on February 12 for Super Bowl LVII where its first-ever Cocktail Coordinator will be introduced to the world.
