With the help of Ticketmaster, football fans now have the opportunity to receive complimentary digital collectibles in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for select games from Thanksgiving through the end of the 2021 NFL season.
Creating more one-to-one experiences through innovation and technology is a high priority across the League and clubs,” said Bobby Gallo, SVP of Club Business Development at the NFL. Leveraging the emerging world of NFTs is a new and exciting way for us to create additional value and to further engage with NFL fans who attend select games by providing a commemorative digital collectible NFT. There is no better time than the upcoming holiday season to kick off this fun and engaging fan experience, starting with the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions Thanksgiving Day matchup.”
