TUMS Launches Super Bowl-Inspired Sweepstakes Called the Burn Ball

— January 7, 2026 — Marketing
The antacid brand TUMS has initiated a promotional campaign centered on a novel item called the Burn Ball. The initiative is timed to coincide with the Super Bowl.

TUMS' Burn Ball campaign involves a limited-release football engineered to contain a bottle of TUMS Chewy Bites inside, which can be accessed when needed. Accompanying the product launch is a collaborative effort with digital creator Eric Decker, known as Airrack, which includes a social media sweepstakes encouraging public participation through creative video submissions under the hashtag #PassTheTUMS for opportunities to win monetary and gift card prizes.

The Burn Ball itself, thus, functions as both a functional antacid dispenser and a playful party accessory that may potentially enhance group interactions and provide relief in a discreet yet humorous format.
