Mountain Mike’s Pizza, a leading California-based family-style pizza chain for more than 45 years, known for its legendary crispy, curly pepperonis, Mountain-sized pizzas, dough made fresh daily, and toppings to the edge, will tip off the 2023-2024 NBA season as a Proud Pizza Partner of the Sacramento Kings for the second straight year. After launching its Kings’ inaugural partnership in early 2023 during a riveting season that saw the Kings make a spirited run in the playoffs and introduced Mountain Mike’s to throngs of new pizza and hoops fans, the brand’s year-two partnership will feature several Kings-themed promotions for all Mountain Rewards Mobile App members and social media followers – keeping “Beam Team” fans cheering all season long.
“Sports have been baked into the fabric of Mountain Mike’s DNA since our inception, and we’re thrilled to team up once again with the Sacramento Kings for a partnership that continues to help us deliver memorable experiences to guests in one of our largest markets,” says Jim Metevier, CEO of Mountain Mike’s Pizza. “This partnership, which includes the participation of nearly 60 Mountain Mike’s restaurants in the region, engages Mountain Mike’s with the local community and reaches pizza lovers throughout the Sacramento-Stockton area in exciting ways while also underscoring our commitment to family-friendly fun.”
Mountain Mike’s relationship with the Sacramento Kings is part of several integrations in professional sports, including partnerships with football’s San Francisco 49ers and baseball’s Los Angeles Angels. Throughout the 2023-2024 NBA regular season, any home game where the Sacramento Kings are leading at halftime unlocks access to a free mini, one-topping pizza for Mountain Rewards app members with the purchase of a 20 oz. bottled beverage. The offer is valid for one day following the game and can be redeemed through the mobile app at any of Mountain Mike’s 56 Sacramento-Stockton locations. Last season, the same Halftime Challenge Trigger Promotion increased mobile app engagement at participating locations by a full 34 percent! Mountain Mike’s Pizza also will give away two tickets to the highly anticipated December 2 game against the defending champion Denver Nuggets through a social media promo. In addition to its digital activations, Mountain Mike’s multifaceted Kings sponsorship includes highly visible in-arena signage throughout the team’s technologically advanced Golden 1 Center, along with several surprise and delight campaigns to engage passionate Kings fans. Mountain Mike’s Pizza will also serve as the presenting partner of a Kings upcoming P.E. Takeover program in local schools.
The Mountain Rewards Mobile App allows members to place and customize orders from Mountain Mike’s full menu, schedule deliveries or carryout service, order ahead for dine-in, save payment information, send digital gift cards, earn 1 point for every $1 spent on qualifying purchases, and track and redeem rewards and offers.
