This year, Courtyard by Marriott is introducing a new feature called the “Greatness on the Road Award.”  It is never easy for a team to win on the road and the same goes for the everyday business traveler. Each week throughout the season, Courtyard and the NFL will be honoring one standout on-the-road NFL player who will be dubbed the Greatness on the Road™ player of the week by the NFL and showcased on NFL.com and Thursday Night Football. Every Thursday night throughout the season Courtyard properties will also be showing games in their lobbies and offering popcorn, happy hour specials and tailgate food for guests to watch the game.

To coincide with the player award, one frequent business traveler and Courtyard guest will also be honored with Marriott reward points and featured on Courtyard’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/courtyard). Through their Facebook sweepstakes, Courtyard will also be giving away TVs, Super Bowl tickets, Courtyard Giftcards, Pro Bowl tickets and more. But, the ultimate prize is for one lucky “road warrior” to win tickets to all of their favorite NFL team’s 2013 road games! (Airfare, hotel and transportation included).
