Caesars Entertainment has announced the launch of the Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck Tour, an expansive fan engagement campaign featuring a fully branded 18-wheeler traveling across the US. The cutting-edge truck will stop at the biggest sporting events and select Caesars destinations to provide unique fan experiences fit for a Caesar.

The Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck will make its debut on September 19 in Orchard Park, New York, for the Monday Night Football home opener of Buffalo against Tennessee, at which time Caesars Sportsbook will also open their new sportsbook-style premium club lounge in the northwest corner tower of the existing Business Class Club.

“Providing customers with memorable experiences and treating them like royalty remains a key emphasis for us. The Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck Tour is an exciting chapter in our story as we shift our marketing focus to a more localized and targeted approach in our second year. We can’t wait to engage fans on the road, and we’d like to thank our great partners for making this possible,” Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital, said.

The Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck features an innovative design with more than 1000 square feet of activation space allowing Caesars to personalize the moments and experiences delivered at each stop. Two mainstays on the truck are a state-of-the-art production studio for filming creative content and a fully equipped podcast studio for content creation with Caesars Sportsbook partners – Omaha Productions, ESPN, and CBS Sports. Peyton Manning’s Omaha Productions will play a key role during the tour through both live event production and digital content creation.

“The team at Omaha could not be more excited to hit the road with our friends at Caesars this football season. Alongside Caesars, we’ve designed an unforgettable live experience that is sure to delight sports fans across the country,” said Omaha Productions Founder Peyton Manning.

At each stop, the Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck will become a must-see attraction and hub delivering unique offers across casino and sports betting for new customers, VIP experiences for members of the industry-leading loyalty program, Caesars Rewards, and a fully immersive environment worthy of a Caesar. Responsible gaming education will also remain a key focus of the campaign and Caesars will utilize RG ambassadors at each stop to engage potential customers about ways to stay in control of their gaming.

Ambassadors from the Caesars Empire will appear along the tour including Trey Wingo, and Kenny Mayne, along with featured guests from Omaha Productions and other celebrities. Fans can expect to engage with well-known former star athletes, participate in tailgate-style activities, watch major sporting events being shown at the truck, and enjoy access to local food and beverage opportunities unique to each host market.

Following its launch in Buffalo, the Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck will hit the road to additional states with legalized sports, making stops at multiple Caesars resorts and marquee sporting events through 2022 and 2023. The initial tour will culminate with a stop at Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Arizona, a market that features a world-class sports betting venue – Caesars Sportsbook and Guy Fieri’s DTPHX Kitchen + Bar at Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck Tour is another example of the memorable experiences available to customers through Caesars Rewards. Every wager placed and casino game played earns Tier Credits for status and Reward Credits that can be redeemed for unforgettable Caesars Rewards experiences, including special access to the Caesars Sportsbook & Casino Truck along its route, discounted getaways at Caesars destinations across the US, bonus cash in the app, world-class culinary experiences, and much more.

College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025

 

  • CSMG will create and operate College Street FighterTM Tour in North America for the 2024-25 academic year
  • College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025
Collegiate Sports Management Group (CSMG) announced today during the kick-off of its Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) Texas presented by McDonald’s that it has joined forces with Capcom to launch the College Street FighterTM Tour during its 2024-25 academic year with the finalists competing at CECC Texas in 2025 throughout its May Madness event. Street FighterTM 6  will join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Overwatch 2®, Rocket League, and VALORANT as part of the official game titles for CECC.
“We are immensely excited to welcome Capcom into the CECC family and provide a path to glory for student athletes to showcase their skills in Street Fighter 6,” said Michael Schreck, Chief Executive Officer for CSMG. “In our fourth year of building May Madness, we continue to listen to our players, coaches and fans on how to make our event more inclusive, and the partnership with Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success.”
“The Street Fighter franchise is a multi-generational and global game series, so it’s important for us to continue to grow that fandom at the collegiate level,” said Michael Larson, Head of Esports at Capcom USA. “CECC continues to set the standard for competition and community, so it’s a natural format for expansion, and we’re eager for College Street Fighter Tour competitors across North America to show off their skills and join us in Texas next year.”
”The vision for the College Street Fighter Tour is a publisher backed esports series that integrates into the existing infrastructure of The Collegiate Esports Commissioners Cup, a bracket style event series that takes place every year and has been coined May Madness. The path to championship includes invitational bids to national and regional level conferences as well as official CECC qualifiers held regionally,” said Angela Bernhard Thomas, Chief Esports Officer for CSMG’s ESPORTSU.
Every college or university from a 2-year or 4-year institution can participate through their conference or through select qualifiers. Wim Stocks will serve as the Commissioner of the College Street Fighter Tour and bring his 20 years of experience in college esports to create a dynamic and engaging format of competitive gaming.
“Since the launch of Street Fighter 6 in June of ’23, it is clear the rich legacy of Street Fighter is stronger than ever and helping lift the fighting game community to still greater heights,” said Stocks. “Having a structure now for a national collegiate competitive series, league, and events, Capcom and ESPORTSU are building a phenomenal ecosystem and mechanism for developing up and coming Street Fighter 6 competitors.”
More details on the College Street Fighter Tour will be shared later this year.
CSMG welcomes 84 teams (up from 64 in 2023) this weekend from a record breaking 19 conference champions to the largest scholastic esports festival globally. They will compete at Esports Stadium Arlington on May 3-5 for the chance to hoist one of the coveted trophies. Fans can watch the CECC Texas on ESPORTSU’s Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/esportsu.
CECC Texas 2023 was also recently awarded LAN Event of the Year during the inaugural Scholars Awards in Las Vegas, which are produced in partnership with the Esports Awards.
