Rider Sandals' Spring foosball tour will be making a stop at the University of Nevada Las Vegas
Feb. 20, then continuing on to one other west coast campuses before
heading East.
The first leg of the Rider Sandals Foosball Tour was introduced in Florida in April 2013, where Rider made stops at the University of South Florida, University of Miami, University of Florida and Florida State University. The tour continued in the fall of 2013 when it hit the Northeast and Midwest hitting some of the biggest universities in the country.
As with the previous legs of the tour, attendees at each of the Spring events will have an opportunity to receive giveaway items such as Rider Sandals discount cards, key chains, stickers, t-shirts, sandals, and more!
Students will be able to stop by each event over the course of the day to casually play a little foosball with friends. They will also be given the opportunity to sign up for a tournament style competition, which will take place later in the day where the competition will really heat up.
Students choosing to play in the tournament will be eligible to not only hold the title of “Campus Foosball Champ,” but also take home a prize package including Rider Sandals and a cash prize!
