Medical Staff Can Enter Drawing for Rams Tickets
The Los Angeles Rams run practice at their training facility in Irvine. Cedars-Sinai is the official partner of the Rams.
Thanks to Cedars-Sinai’s new partnership with the Los Angeles Rams, medical staff members with a Cedars-Sinai email address will soon have a chance to score free football tickets and cheer the return of the storied NFL franchise.
About 100 tickets per game will be distributed among all Cedars-Sinai staff through a random drawing. Staff members may enter only once and can win only once this season.
After submitting the proper information online, a staff member will automatically be entered to win tickets to each of the Rams seven home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum this season. Winners will be notified by email and will receive two tickets and a co-branded T-shirt. Unclaimed tickets will be forfeited and will be passed on to the next drawn name.
An initial drawing will be held Wednesday, Sept. 14, before the Rams' first regular season home game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, Sept. 18. The rest of the winners will be chosen in a drawing on Wednesday, Sept. 28. Winners will be notified by email shortly after both drawings.
In August, Cedars-Sinai and the Rams announced their partnership and plans to promote health and wellness for children and families across the region. Cedars-Sinai will team up with the Rams to host local events for Play 60, the NFL’s national campaign to encourage kids to be active for at least 60 minutes a day.
On game days, Cedars-Sinai will serve as a presenting sponsor of the Kids Zone at all Rams home games, a fun and interactive play are that will be open during pregame just outside the Coliseum in the Rams Fan Fest area.
"We are delighted that Cedars-Sinai staff members will be in the stands for the historic homecoming season of the Los Angeles Rams," said Andy Ortiz, senior vice president of Human Resources and Organization Development.
