Enter Weezer's pumpkin carving contest, win a billboard
If you've ever wanted a billboard all to yourself, here's your chance, thanks to Weezer.
It all started with a Tik Tok (see below) of a billboard that someone bought that is simply the band's name. Weezer then replied with a thank you billboard of their own.
But now, Weezer has announced a Weezer-themed pumpkin carving contest with the grand prize being your own billboard "somewhere in America", courtesy of Weezer.
If you want to enter this contest, check out Weezerween.com - seriously, look at this website. Total throwback to the early HTML days.
@luccainternationalBought this billboard today. I’d say it was an excellent use of company money.
