As theaters continue to face uncertainty during the pandemic period, they are coming up with new ways to attract customers to the theater. AMC has partnered with NFL Sunday Ticket to bring non-market football games to their theaters across the country. In about 40 theaters in the United States in 25 markets, they showed a game selected from each market that was not available on local television. The AMC promotion didn’t last long, but Cinemark hopes the smaller sample size and more national appeal will entice sports fans to visit their theaters.
