NEW YORK, May 14, 2024 – Old Parr Scotch Whisky is getting ready to celebrate one of the biggest South American fútbol events of the year by raising a glass to Latinos across the U.S. pouring the spirit of their home country with pride. In partnership with retired legend, Roberto Carlos, whose fútbol legacy spans a World Cup win, four La Liga titles and three Champions League medals, the brand is encouraging fans to root for their home team no matter where they’re tuning in from this summer.
“I’m thrilled to partner with Old Parr Scotch Whisky to celebrate the fans that are pouring the spirit of their home countries when watching o jogo bonito and cheering on their team,” says Roberto Carlos. “Coming from Brazil, ‘o País do Futebol,’ and moving to Spain, I’ve always carried my traditions with me and I’m excited to share them with fans in Miami.”
Kicking off with a national ‘Goalden Moments’ contest, Old Parr is inviting fútbol enthusiasts living in the U.S. to share how fans bring their hometown spirit alive, maintain traditions and celebrate when watching fútbol through photo and video submissions. Now through June 21, 2024, fans 25+ can enter HERE for the chance to fly two friends (21+) from the U.S. or select countries in Latin America * to Miami, Florida, for an unforgettable experience co-hosted by Roberto Carlos during a highly anticipated finals match weekend.†
Five additional lucky winners will be treated to a $1,000 gift card so they can create their own Goalden Moments at home and host the ultimate fútbol watch party with friends and family.
With a rich history and popularity in Latin America, Old Parr has been loved and enjoyed by Latinos for generations, elevating countless moments to golden status and bringing people together over their shared customs, traditions, and cocktails. Similarly, fútbol unites people from all over the world as they share in their pride for the sport and countries the teams represent.
