Raiders Are Good Sports At Mexico City Game -

11/22/2016

For the first time in 11 years, the NFL was back in Mexico City as the Oakland Raiders hosted the Houston Texans for Monday Night Football at Estadio Azteca on November 21, 2016. Fans from around Mexico and those who traveled from the United States showed tremendous support for the Oakland Raiders and the Bud Light Good Sport message. Hundreds of responsible fans autographed a responsibility wall and received a free souvenir photo for pledging to be a Good Sport, the designated driver for their group. One lucky and responsible fan will win a $100 NFLShop.com gift card as the winner of the Responsibility Has Its Rewards sweepstakes for the game.

US DOT / NHTSA 2015 NATIONAL DATA:

• In 2015, 10,265 people were killed as a result of alcohol-related (BAC > 0.08) car crashes, an increase of 3.2% from the 9,943 fatalities in 2014.

• Many, if not most of those lives would have been saved if people did not drive when they were impaired by alcohol or if they used sober, designated drivers or if they simply wore their seat belts.

• Statistics and research clearly show that 21-34 year old males are the demographic most likely to be involved in an automobile crash
