Months before the players take the field, Coors Light, the official beer sponsor of the NFL, is building excitement for the NFL season among football fans.

"The NFL is the single greatest sports property in the world. The power of the sport is evident in that its fans follow their favorite teams and players throughout the year, not just during the season," said Andy England, chief marketing officer for Coors Brewing Company. "This year, Coors Light is leveraging its affiliation with the NFL all year long by giving fans several chances to win access to some of the most exciting and sought-after sporting events on the calendar."

"Fans have an insatiable appetite for the NFL," said Peter Murray Peter Murray is the Robert Braucher Visiting Professor and Edward R. Johnston Lecturer on Law at Harvard Law School.

Murray graduated from Harvard Law School (LL. , the NFL's vice president of sales and partnership marketing. "The NFL is a year-round passion for our fans and we are pleased to see a sponsor like Coors Light bring them closer to our events with great experiences."

Coors Light kicks off its year-round sponsorship of the 2006 NFL season at this weekend's NFL Draft. In fulfillment of its 2005 "Road to XL" promotion, which gave consumers the opportunity to win a myriad of NFL prizes throughout the 2005 season, Coors Light is sending 20 fans from across the country to the NFL Draft, being conducted April 29-30 at Radio City Music Hall Radio City Music Hall
