BLACK iGUANA® sponsors Austin “Batfest” - Title Sponsor of Austin's larges Summer Event

Aug. 3, 2012 - PRLog -- AUSTIN, TX (Aug. 3, 2012) – BLACK iGUANA® proudly announced its title sponsorship of Austin’s premiere summer festival, “BatFest”.   Tens-of-thousands of Austin residents and BLACK iGUANA® will celebrate the city’s massive bat population during the all-night festival in downtown in late August.

“Wherever there’s fun people and live music, Texas-based BLACK iGUANA® Margaritas & Cocktails, are not too far away,” said Curtis Fox, V.P. Sales.  “We’re honored to support this important annual Austin event.  It gives us an opportunity to thank the city of Austin and our customers for their loyalty to the BLACK iGUANA® line of products.”

“BatFest” will draw more than 20,000 Austin-area residents to the Ann Richards Congress Avenue Bridge on August 25th.  After the sun goes down, millions of bats swarm out from the caves under the bridge and put on a spectacular show.  The event, the largest summer event in Austin, is hosted by sister radio stations, 93.7 FM KLBJ and 101.5 FM KROX.  This year, BLACK iGUANA® Margaritas & Cocktails and the radio stations will provide extensive live music entertainment on two stages at the event, live social media streaming of the bat flight and numerous contests and giveaways.

“We’re excited to have BLACK iGUANA® Margaritas & Cocktails as the title sponsor of this year’s BatFest,” said Tonya Bailey, 93.7 FM KLBJ.  “This is an important event for Austin and BLACK iGUANA’s sponsorship shows the company’s commitment to our city.”

BLACK iGUANA® Margaritas & Cocktails are packaged in fun, pre-mixed single-serve plastic pouches with re-closable spouts. You can enjoy them straight from the pouch or served chilled on-the-rocks. The perfectly blended 10 oz single-serve BLACK iGUANA® Margarita & Cocktails pouches contain 5.5% alcohol/volume.

“I love it,” said Marianela Johnson, BLACK iGUANA® customer. “Had friends try it, even my brother and they all want a full case!  I love it!”

Batfest will prove to be a fun and hot summer night and there’s nothing better to cool you down than one of the three BLACK iGUANA® refreshing tropical margarita flavors – Classic Lime, Strawberry and Peach margaritas or the new Pina Colada cocktail.

“We’ve made it easy and convenient to enjoy a margarita anywhere, anytime,” said Fox.  “When you’re at BatFest, just hang one of our uniquely designed BLACK iGUANA® pouches around your neck with our branded BLACK iGUANA® pouch leash (attaches to the pouch spout) and UNLEASH the party.”

BLACK iGUANA® great tasing margaritas and cocktails in a pouch is perfect for home parties, by the pool at the beach or tailgating. It’s always a favorite with those that prefer non-beer refreshments.  The pouches make it very easy and convenient to freeze in your home freezer or chill in your party cooler. The margaritas freeze to a perfect slushy consistency equal to restaurant-style frozen margaritas.

FREEZE, SQUEEZE, ENJOY! BLACK iGUANA®. Look for them wherever you shop.
