Thanks to a fan suggestion, the Meadowlands Racetrack has created a “Drive of the Weekend” promotion.
Each Monday, following the weekend of racing, the Meadowlands will post a poll on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) asking fans to vote for their favourite drive of the past weekend. The poll will run for 24 hours, allowing one vote per X handle. Fans can follow @TheMeadowlands on X to vote in the poll.
Meadowlands TV staff and management will select at least two outstanding drives from the weekend to include in the poll. Fans can suggest a drive to be included in the poll via X. If that drive is included in the poll, the fan will receive a $25 betting voucher valid at the Meadowlands (for those 18 years old and up, random drawing used if multiple fans suggest same drive).
The winning drive will be announced every Tuesday afternoon and the winning driver will receive a $500 donation to the charity of their choice, courtesy of Jeff Gural and the Meadowlands. The promo will begin Monday, March 11.
“We encourage our fans to submit their suggestions to us via social media or emails to [email protected],” said Jason Settlemoir, COO/GM of the Meadowlands. “We are always open to new ideas and if we can make something work, we will!”
