BetMGM has kicked off a three-part teaser campaign, revealing an unexpected collaboration between former New England Patriot and Tampa Bay Buccaneer Tom Brady, former Edmonton Oiler and Los Angeles King Wayne Gretzky, and actor Vince Vaughn (Swingers, Freaky, The Break Up). This marks a significant moment for BetMGM as it prepares to unveil its first-ever Big Game television spot.
Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, expressed excitement about the opportunity to spotlight BetMGM during the Big Game, emphasizing the commercial’s focus on Las Vegas as both the game’s and BetMGM’s home. The star-studded teasers, featuring never-before-seen interactions between Brady, Gretzky, and Vaughn, were created in partnership with the renowned agency Highdive US, known for its success in crafting winning Big Game campaigns.
“This year’s Big Game is our moment to put BetMGM front and center of the largest audience in sports. Our first-ever Big Game commercial showcases Las Vegas as home for the game as well as what we consider to be BetMGM’s home. We couldn’t be happier with the talent we have assembled for the ad, and the connection they have to our brand.”
The teasers, currently live on social channels, provide a sneak peek into the entertainment BetMGM has in store for Big Game fans. As part of a comprehensive strategy, BetMGM has organized multiple events and promotions leading up to February 11, including the BetMGM Big Game Bash at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, headlined by Luke Combs. Exclusive tickets for the concert are available through the BetMGM app. Watch below:
