TEAM traveled to Atlanta, GA for the 2012 HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) Atlanta Bank of America Classic at the Georgia Dome on September 29th to reward fans who made the Responsibility Has Its Rewards pledge to:
- Always Buckle Up – Every Trip, Every Time
- Never Drive Drunk
- Always Have a Designated Driver
Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk was the responsibility message for Florida A&M University and Southern University fans over the age of 21. Those that made the pledge received souvenir photos branded with the campaign message and the logos of the partner organizations.
