CHICAGO, Sept. 09, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Corona is excited to announce that Tony Romo will be returning as the Corona Hotline Operator for a third year to get fans in the right mindset by providing them with the ultimate “Gameday Beach” experience during this reimagined football season.

Football Season is Here! Corona® Hotline Returns with Operator Tony Romo
Brand to Offer an Opportunity to Win a Trip for a Beachside Draft Party and Provide Daily Chances to Win the New Corona Lime Time Trophy


Now through Oct. 31, fans can call the Corona Hotline at 1-844-9-CORONA to catch Romo’s gameday rally cry and fantasy football tips and play a lighthearted question and answer game. By answering a question from Romo, fans will have daily chances to instantly win a newly designed Corona Lime Time Trophy, and enter the Corona Football Sweepstakes for a chance to win the Grand Prize trip for a beachside draft party for their 2021 fantasy league.

“As another football season kicks off, I’m looking forward to operating the Corona Hotline again,” said Romo. “While this football season will look very different, it’ll be great bringing people together around the shared passion of fantasy football. I can’t promise fans will be successful with their fantasy squads this year, but I’m here to help the most passionate fans get their hands on the coveted Corona Lime Time Trophy.”

Beginning Sept. 7, Romo will again take center stage in Corona’s fall football TV ads – the full campaign includes a complete 360-marketing effort including TV advertising, off-premise programming featuring the new Corona Lime Time Trophy, and social/digital promotion all centered around the Corona Hotline.

“We’re thrilled to be bringing the Corona Hotline back with Tony Romo for another season,” said Ann Legan, Vice President of Brand Marketing, Corona. “This season will certainly be unique, but we know that fans throughout the country will continue find ways to share the excitement of the season with their family and friends. With unrivaled enthusiasm for the game, Tony represents all the best things about football and we know that he will continue to help fans find their gameday beach in 2020.”
