Top 30 Publicity Stunts Trends in February

From 1,087-Pound Bean Dips to Hot Sauce Tub Giveaways

— February 23, 2020 — Marketing
The February 2020 Publicity Stunt trends explore ideas like 1,087-pound bean dips, sports-themed chair giveaways, branded football-themed snack holders, and hot sauce tub giveaways in preparation for the upcoming Super Bowl game. All the promotions give fans the possibility of winning branded swag to more comfortably watch the big game while being a spectacular host.

These February 2020 publicity stunts use clever, Super Bowl-themed marketing tactics to gain brand exposure and consumer loyalty. Take HEINZ, the iconic ketchup brand that went above and beyond for football fans and launched the HEINZ's 57 cent flight promotion. Those who were hoping to watch the big game in person and booked their flight to Miami before the final teams were determined while have their flights re-routed for only 57 cents -- a big saving compared to the traditional $200 fee.
