INTRUST Bank Arena Announces Winner of 2016 Golden Ticket

(Wichita, Kan.) – The SMG-managed INTRUST Bank Arena and 102.1 The Bull announced the winner of the 2016 Golden Ticket earlier this week. Marcia Calvert, a Wichita native, was the lucky winner and was presented with the golden ticket this afternoon which provides her with two tickets to every event at INTRUST Bank Arena in 2016.  The Golden Ticket Giveaway was announced earlier this month and the contest ran from Dec. 1 through Dec. 15.

“It is so exciting, I can hardly believe it happened to me,” said Marcia Calvert, Golden Ticket Giveaway winner.  “My family is so excited about the opportunity to see so many different events in 2016.” 

Marcia said she plans to take her granddaughter to Sesame Street Live in January and is also looking forward to attending Barry Manilow’s “One Last Time” Tour in February. 

“The Golden Ticket is by far our favorite giveaway we do each year at INTRUST Bank Arena,” commented AJ Boleski, SMG General Manager. “It is so rewarding to give back to our community through these types of contests and to award one lucky fan with two tickets to every event over the course of one whole year is very exciting. Our marketing team does a great job organizing and executing these promotions.”

The Golden Ticket Giveaway was hosted through INTRUST Bank Arena’s facebook page and online at 1021thebull.com.  This year marks the fifth straight year that INTRUST Bank Arena has given away a golden ticket to one lucky fan. More than 16,000 participants entered the contest this December.
