Mobile game shared the thrill of soccer's Gold Cup with fans everywhere
As the official automotive partner of the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup, Toyota fueled the excitement for fans by inviting them to express their love for the sport through an interactive mobile game for a chance to win a variety of prizes, including a lease for a 2021 Toyota Tacoma.
Toyota’s “Gooool to the Gold Cup” game empowered players to show their passion for their favorite team by giving their loudest and longest “Goooal” scream into their mobile device. The game was available online through Toyota’s social channels (@ToyotaLatino) and at gritemosjuntos.com.
Here’s how it worked:
1. Players chose their favorite truck: a 2021 Tacoma TRD Pro or 2021 Tundra TRD Pro
2. Players then chose their favorite team participating in this year’s Gold Cup
3. The countdown begins: three, two, one – the louder and longer that players shout “Goooal,” the farther their vehicle goes. All contestants who played and registered were automatically entered for a chance to win a lease for a 2021 Toyota Tacoma or a trip to the Gold Cup Final in Las Vegas, Nevada.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to help fans get the most out of the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup experience, wherever they are,” said Matt Ozawa, engagement marketing manager, Toyota Motor North America. “After a long pause in live action, it is incredibly rewarding to have this opportunity to help celebrate the determination and spirit of the players and fans, as well as the sheer thrill of the game.”
