As the football season heats up, Budweiser is offering a red-hot opportunity for pigskin fans that also really love their beer.
Bud Light, the official beer sponsor of the National Football League, is now offering a limited-edition “Strike Gold” Super Bowl-themed packaging on all packs of 18, 24, and 30-packs of 12 oz. Bud Light cans across the country-- with the exception of California. What's so cool about the new boxed? The beer manufacturer will randomly place 37,000 special golden Super Bowl 51 cans in certain packs. If you find a golden hued can, you may be in the running to win some pretty big prizes at the end of the season.
Six weekly winners during the promotional window will be selected to win a pair of season tickets to see their favorite NFL team.
But the ultimate victor will win tickets to attend the Super Bowl each year for the rest of his or her life-- or up to 51 years of games.
Consider it the Willy Wonka golden ticket for beer lovers.

Fans of Bud Light (or eager Super Bowl crowd wannabes) can pick up specially marked packs from now until Jan. 13.
