Dewey Awarded For Rock Paper Scissors Event”

Case Study

Pabst Blue Ribbon wished to create a signature experiential event that aligned with their core event focus – music, art and weird sports. With the local brand manager in transition they were seeking a turn-key service to create, manage and market the event.

The ultimate game of arbitrary sport – Rock Paper Scissors. The event featured 36 3-person teams competing in head-to-head tournament at a featured on-premise account. The concept was layered with numerous on-site activations including the wildly popular PBR Buckets. Fans (and losing contestants) could wager against each other in side-bets around the room. To add a comedic element, key hosts Dorgan and Milroy Muncie were contracted to host the event. To support the promotion, a media buy was placed on Do317.com to help drive interest and excitement. The event launched in 2016 and has attracted sellout crowds of contestants and fans. What began as a one-off event has evolved into a staple event on the Pabst promotional calendar. One that draws over 2 million earned media impressions.
