New Survey Reveals Americans’ Dream for 2014 Greatest Weekend Ever

Great Clips Launches Sweepstakes to Make Fantasy Weekend Come True

January 2, 2014 - A new national survey reveals for most Americans The 2014 Greatest Weekend Ever would include time spent with good friends and a sports celebrity, plus a stay at a sports celebrity’s house. Great Clips, the world’s largest salon brand, will make that dream come true for one lucky winner of The Greatest Weekend Ever Sweepstakes. The winner and three friends will enjoy a two-night stay at NASCAR great Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s lake house near Charlotte, N.C., a barbecue party with Junior and Kasey Kahne, and VIP passes and tickets to two NASCAR races at the Darlington Raceway in South Carolina. The winner will also ride away in style with a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado.

A Great Clips’ national online survey of 500 people (250 men, 250 women) reveals for The Greatest Weekend Ever:

  • 75 percent would enjoy a weekend with a sports celebrity and a stay at a sports celebrity’s home.
  • 57 percent say good friends are the most important thing to bring to the greatest weekend ever followed by drinks (24 percent) and barbecue sauce (10 percent).
  • 35 percent say the greatest weekend would include time with friends, followed by a weekend with no responsibilities (32 percent) and a weekend relaxing by the lake (28 percent). 
  • Almost 1/3 (32 percent) say the greatest weekend ever would include waiting for someone to bring them food and drinks over planning the party themselves (26 percent) or manning the grill (27 percent).

"The survey reveals we certainly hit the sweet spot with The Greatest Weekend Ever Sweepstakes for people who would be thrilled to spend a weekend relaxing lakeside with Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne, firing up the grill while being served food and drinks, enjoying water sports and maybe even taking a ride in the Great Clips race car," says Rhoda Olsen, Great Clips CEO. "We’re excited to make this dream weekend a reality for the sweepstakes winner."
