The TEAM Coalition and Major League Baseball® joined together in support of designated driver
programs at all MLB stadiums during the 2008 season with a special
incentive.
Fans who registered to be a designated driver pledged to not drink alcohol,
drove their friends and family home safely, and ensured that everyone
always buckled up.
At the end of the season, one designated driver from each Club was
selected. The
designated drivers from the Clubs that compete in the World Series® beginning on
October 22, 2008 will each receive
two (2) tickets to the first game of the series played at the ballpark of their
favorite MLB Club.
A trip to the 2009 MLB All-Star Game® in St. Louis at Busch Stadium will be awarded one of the remaining 28 designated drivers
for the season.
The All-Star Game® trip includes two (2) tickets to
the game, roundtrip airfare, and hotel accommodations (if necessary). Click here to see last year's winners.
Entrants for the Responsibilty Has Its Rewards sweepstakes were all MLB fans who
pledged to be the designated driver for their friends and family at an MLB stadium
during the 2008 season. Entry was also available online at www.rhir.org or by mail.

To promote this incentive, TEAM produced TV and radio PSAs. The TV
PSAs aired on local broadcast stations in MLB markets, and they were
also played on the video boards in MLB ballparks. The radio PSAs
aired on local radio stations and national radio networks. Click here for the PSAs.
