Plan Your Big Game Party

Looking to ensure that your Big Game Party is the biggest in town? Odds On has affordable giant-prize promotions to help you drive traffic, increase sales, and keep customers on premise during any big game.

Our favorite promotion? Scoreboard Payoff pull tab cards, where your patrons recieve a card and if the numbers on their card, match the last digit of each teams’ scores – they win a $25,000 prize, paid for by Odds On.

Or, Lucky Squares: a customized 100-square pool grid with a mystery square worth $10,000, or more. If the final score of the big game lands in the preselected square, the owner of that square wins the giant prize, and Odds On will write the check.
