AFC WEST – 2017 – Bud Light Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge

The Kansas City Chiefs are this year’s winner of the AFC West Bud Light Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge, which is a competition between four NFL teams: the Oakland Raiders, the Los Angeles Chargers, the Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs. The winner of the AFC West Designated Driver Challenge was the NFL team with the most total points at the end of the 2017 regular season. Points are earned when fans pledge to be Good Sports – designated drivers – at NFL games and when fans show support for their favorite team’s responsibility efforts on Facebook.

Rules

The winner of the AFC West Designated Driver Challenge will be the NFL team with the most total points at the end of the 2017 regular season. In addition to bragging rights, the winner will earn a pretty cool trophy and fans of all the teams will enjoy a safe and family-friendly experience at the stadium. The teams need help from their fans in order to earn points in the AFC West Designated Driver Challenge.

For every fan who makes a pledge to be a designated driver at the stadium during regular season home games, that team will score a touchdown and earn six points in the Bud Light Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge. For each team, the designated driver points will be divided by the number of regular season home games each team plays.

Teams can earn an extra point for each fan who likes or shares the Designated Driver Challenge posts on the teams’ Facebook pages, retweets or favorites tweets on Twitter and likes posts on Instagram. Extra points will be added to the average designated driver point total to determine each team’s total score. The team with the greatest total score wins!

Designated drivers must meet the following critera:

  • Be 21 years of age or older
  • Promise not to drink alcohol beverages at the game
  • Provide responsible sober transportation for their group

A fan may only pledge to be a designated driver once per game.
