Biggest Fan Contest

From Cinnamon Toast Crunch loyalists to Lucky Charms obsessives, General Mills cereals have inspired devoted fans for generations. And now, those fans have something BIG to rally around. General Mills is passing the ball to sports legend and cereal superfan Shaquille O'Neal, to bring his big personality and love of competition to the first ever Biggest Fan Contest — inviting fans to prove their cereal devotion for the opportunity to win epic prizes, exclusive merch and unforgettable experiences inspired by General Mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, Reese's Puffs and Honey Nut Cheerios cereals.

"I have been eating cereal my whole life, and I'm still just as excited about it now as I was when I was young," said Shaquille O'Neal. "Lucky Charms has always been a favorite — those marshmallows never get old to me. This contest is a chance to celebrate that same excitement in fans everywhere who love cereal as much as I do."

From cereal-themed tattoos to cereal bars at weddings, fans have found bold ways to show off their cereal love for years. With the Biggest Fan Contest, General Mills is giving their superfans the opportunity to prove their passion by uploading a photo or video and sharing why they deserve the title of Biggest Fan.

The competition will feature one massive grand prize plus four cereal-inspired fan experiences and a year's supply of their favorite cereal:

• Grand Prize: A BIG trip to Shaq's Fun House, including two VIP tickets and $1,000 spending cash, plus a BIG cash prize of $20K and a meet and greet with Shaq.
• Lucky Charms Pot of Gold: A cauldron complete with two 1 oz gold bars along with VIP tickets and a trip for two to Shaq's Fun House.
• Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnafan Cave: A fully decked-out, Cinnadusted fan cave for the ultimate game day setup and tickets to Shaq's Fun House.
• Reese's Puffs VIP Pass: A "Very Important Puff" experience to Shaq's Fun House plus $1,500 spending cash and a ride in style to one of the most talked-about parties of football's biggest game, along with a custom Reese's Puffs turntable and sound system.
• Honey Nut Cheerios "Bowl" Hot Tub: A BIG Honey Nut Cheerios bowl-inspired hot tub paired with Cheerios-themed lawn chairs, plus tickets to Shaq's Fun House.

Fans who act fast can score even more — early entrants will unlock access to limited-edition brand-inspired merch, available while supplies last.

Hitting shelves this August, shoppers can also find a lineup of Fandemonium Faves including limited-edition boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, Reese's Puffs and Honey Nut Cheerios featuring custom tattoos inspired by each cereal so fans can show off their spirit. Plus, when shoppers spend $25 on select General Mills products, they can receive $10 back* by uploading their receipt at ScoreWithGeneralMills.com.

"Our cereal fans bring incredible passion and personality to the brands they love, and we believe we have some of the best fans out there," said Megan Brooks, Business Unit Director for Family Favorite Cereals at General Mills. "With Shaq bringing his larger-than-life energy to the Biggest Fan Contest, we wanted to create a fun way for people to join in, show their love for their favorite cereals and compete for some seriously unforgettable prizes."
