Harley-Davidson Hometown Throwdown III
Harley-Davidson’s Hometown Throwdown III event will bring a lucky Ultimate Fighting Championship fan and his or her hometown into the spotlight.
Harley and UFC will bring the winner’s home town the ultimate prize package – a UFC fight and tailgate party topped off with custom Harleys, live music, Octagon Girls and more.
Here’s the deal: fans can clinch the chance to host the all-out bash in their town by explaining why their city should be the next location for the 2015 Harley-Davidson Hometown Throwdown event and how they would be the ultimate host by clicking here.
The contest, running through Dec. 31, 2014, kicked off Aug. 30 at UFC 177 in Sacramento, where Harley-Davidson awarded a custom Harley-Davidson cruiser from their 2015 motorcycle lineup launched earlier this week to each of the five winning fighters on the main card.
“We want fans and fighters to know that when Harley-Davidson and UFC come together something big is about to happen,” said Dino Bernacchi, U.S. Marketing Director at Harley-Davidson.
“We are raising the stakes for UFC 177 by giving each bout winner a new motorcycle, and we’re also bringing back for the third year a fan favorite – the Hometown Throwdown event – which proves to be a once-in-a-lifetime way to experience the world’s best fighters and the only motorcycle brand worthy of being in the Octagon.”
In addition to the opportunity to play host for the 2015 Harley-Davidson Hometown Throwdown, the winner also will:
- Learn to ride Vegas-style with a five-day/four-night trip for four to Las Vegas in March where they’ll train with professional UFC fighters at the Harley-Davidson Riding Academy and be cheered on by – and hang out with – the famous Octagon Girls.
- Receive the ride of a lifetime with their choice of one customized 2015 Harley-Davidson Dark Custom motorcycle.
- Be the hometown hero by hosting a weekend experience in their hometown, including behind-the-scenes access at the Harley-Davidson Hometown Throwdown event and exclusive time with the fighters.
- Lead the pack with a UFC entourage during the parade-style group motorcycle ride through the streets of their hometown to the fight location.
- Plan the Party with Harley-Davidson and UFC, including the ride and the tailgate party entertainment.
