Walmart $99 Family Ticket Package Brings Savings to North Carolina NASCAR Fans

Walmart
August 15, 2012


Exclusive Ticket, Food Package to Bank of America 500 Offers Savings of More Than $100*

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 15, 2012 – NASCAR fans in North Carolina can save on tickets to the upcoming Bank of America 500 on Oct. 13 with the Walmart Family Track Pack. The $99 package gives families four race tickets, four hot dogs, four sodas and one program – a total savings of more than $100.

“We are making races affordable and accessible for fans,” said Rand Waddoups, senior director, Entertainment Properties and Brands, Walmart. “The Walmart Family Track Pack is a great value that gives local fans a way to take their whole family to the track together.”

“NASCAR fans that descend into Cabarrus County spend millions of dollars that help our local economy by generating tax revenues for local governments, thereby reducing the property tax burden on residents,” said Donna Carpenter, president and CEO of the Cabarrus County Convention & Visitors Bureau.

“The economic impact that visitors create trickles throughout the county, via hotels, restaurants and retail stores. In essence, the speedway is the driver, and we are the pit crew! It's a win-win for everyone,” Carpenter added.

The Walmart Family Track Pack is available online at www.walmart.com/NASCAR and in Ticketmaster kiosks in select stores.
