Fill Your Tank with Gulf Oil Gas & Fill Your Pocket with Spring Baseball Fun

Gulf Gas Can Win You Red Sox, Mets, or Phillies Tickets

NEWTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Good news for baseball fans. For the fourth consecutive year, Gulf Oil LP is running a ticket giveaway sweepstakes in conjunction with Major League Baseball.

“This long-standing relationship with the Major League Baseball has been so successful that we have expanded the prizes so more customers can benefit”

With every fill-up, Gulf Oil customers can enter for a chance to win choice seats at pre-selected Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, or 2008 World Champion Philadelphia Phillies games this season.

There are eight First-Prize winners per team who will win two desirable seats at their team’s stadium -- Red Sox Green Monster, Mets Field Level, or Phillies Suite. In addition, Gulf will draw one grand prize winner per team. The Grand Prize is four tickets to a game, plus a stadium tour -- especially exciting for Mets fans looking to explore the new Citi Field stadium.

“This long-standing relationship with the Major League Baseball has been so successful that we have expanded the prizes so more customers can benefit,” said Gulf Oil President and Chief Operating Officer Ron Sabia. “We know people have many choices when buying gas, and we appreciate that our customers continue to choose Gulf. This program is one way we thank them for making Gulf the premier gasoline brand in the Northeast.”

Drivers may enter up to four times with four fill-ups or receive an automatic entry every time they use their Gulf MasterCard to fill-up at Gulf. This sweepstakes runs from April 15^th through June 30^th, 2009.

"We are fortunate to have developed relationships with three of the strongest Major League Baseball franchises in the league,” said Rick Dery, Gulf Oil’s Chief Marketing Officer. “The Boston Red Sox and the Philadelphia Phillies have enjoyed World Series Championships in recent years, and we have high hopes for the New York Mets. Such victories help to bring national attention to the iconic Gulf mark."
