Pizza Hut is promoting its second year as the NFL Official Pizza Sponsor by giving customers a code for half off its pizzas for a limited time. The 2016's first overall draft pick, Jared Goff, will reveal the code during the NFL draft at 7 p.m. Thursday via Pizza Hut's Twitter, Instagram or Facebook accounts. Customers who use the code will be eligible to win a VIP trip to a game in the NFL regular 2019-20 season, a news release said.
Pizza Hut will also recognize the 78th overall pick of the NFL Draft — or Pi Pick — the 14th pick in the third round (3.14) — with a year's free pizza. Additionally, the brand will reward fans who head to Nashville for the draft with special perks like the chance to dance alongside Pizza Hut player partner, JuJu Smith-Schuster, via an augmented reality experience at NFL Draft Experience.
Pizza Hut signed a multi-year agreement with the NFL in 2018, allowing the brand exclusive marketing rights, benefits and designations.
