Smoothie King Proprietor Nabs Grand Prize

Jan 27, 2009

 

"The Supreme Protein bars are the hottest selling protein bars we've ever had in any of our 27 Smoothie King stores!  These things sell as fast as we can stock them."
- Bill Roberton - Smoothie King

We've got a winner! As legions of sports fans converge on Tampa Bay, Florida on February 1st for the crown jewel of American sports events, one lucky fan will be getting the Super Bowl VIP treatment from Supreme Protein®.

Bill Roberton, owner of 17 Smoothie King franchises and controller of another 10, won the Grand Prize by doing what comes naturally to him and so many other store owners around the country: ordering plenty of Supreme Protein bars from Europa Sports Products. As a result, he'll be receiving 2 VIP tickets to Super Bowl XLIII, round-trip airfare, premium hotel accomodations, $1000 in spending money, and other promotional gifts.  All compliments of Supreme Protein!

Bill, whose winning entry was selected from many thousands of entries that were automatically generated each time a store owner placed an order for the hugely popular Supreme Protein bars, is thrilled to be making this exciting trip. "I've never been to the Super Bowl before," he says. "It's kind of amazing that I won this prize just by ordering Supreme Protein bars." 
"Supreme Protein bars are the hottest selling protein bars we've ever had in any of our 27 Smoothie King stores," he goes on to say. "These things sell as fast as we can stock them.  We have a great margin, and with today's economy this is exactly what we need.  They are our TOP selling protein bar and our customers keep coming back for more!"

A lifelong fan of the Chicago Bears, Roberton still counts as his favorite Super Bowl memory of all time the Bear's utter demolition of the overmatched New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX, by the score of 46-10. "The only thing that could make this prize better, "Roberton says, "would be if the Bears were going to the big game, too."

Now, as Bill makes arrangements for someone else to watch over his Smoothie King stores on Super Bowl weekend, we asked him one last question. Who's gonna win?

"Well, out of the 8 teams remaining in the playoffs, I'd have to say the Carolina Panthers, which would make the Europa guys happy. Of course, I hope I didn't just jinx them!"
