Not only did Sam make more than 43,000 fresh introductions for Mentos, he accomplished what most new students couldn’t do over four years—he met the whole campus.

 

Music mogul DJ Khaled turned into Sam’s biggest cheerleader. His social posts, interviews with A-list entertainment media and a national contest to attend the concert made sure what happened in Madison didn’t stay in Madison.

A new chapter will soon be added to the long history of brands that give their stuff away. It will be about Mentos.”
