Brand Besties

Gig Overview: Uber is bringing game day energy to University of Minnesota this fall, and we're seeking outgoing, high energy Brand Ambassadors to join a street team activation for the tailgate scene. This is a mobile, high visibility gig. There's no assigned booth, just you, a small team, and thousands of students ready to talk gameday, rides, and safety. As part of the street team, you'll walk through the tailgate footprint in a street style tailgate area open to all fans, not right at the student entrance, striking up conversations with students, sharing Uber's safe ride messaging, and handing out promo cards, swag, and discount codes. The activation also includes a 10x10 home base on site, giving your team a central point to restock and regroup between walks through the crowd.
