The deal also includes traditional activations such as in-game signage and a presence on team digital/social outlets. “This enables fans to have more interaction to post on multiple marketplaces at once,” said Clippers President of Business Operations Gillian Zucker. Vivid Seats has deals with five NFL teams and 30 colleges teams, and the company is looking for more NBA teams deals.
