Firestone begins football tour

Updated Oct 14, 2013

Bridgestone Commercial Solutions launched the second leg of its Firestone Drives America Tour at the NCAA College Football game between Stanford and San Jose State Saturday, Sept. 7. The tour continues this fall as the road show stops at eight select college football games.

The road show crossed the country this summer, stopping at 12 Minor League Baseball games. Tour attendees learned about company’s new line of Firestone eco-Products. Firestone made donations to local food banks along the way. A total of $15,000 was donated to help feed the hungry in these local communities.

The Firestone Drives America Tour is part of the “Those With Drive, Drive a Firestone” campaign, which first kicked off in March and includes a series of activities across the United States celebrating the company. The campaign includes the Drive a Firestone Sweepstakes, where one lucky Class 8-CDL holder will win the sweepstakes’ grand prize – a Firestone Edition Class 8 tractor. The tractor is on display during the tour.

Tour attendees can talk to Firestone experts about how to achieve a lower cost per mile and any other questions they may have about Firestone tires. To check out the road show tour schedule, visit www.firestonetrucktires.com.

The Firestone Drives America Tour concludes at the 2014 Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Ky.
