Celebrating Local Talent: BOB Hotels × Postgame NIL - teaming up for FSU & FAMU student-athletes
Why we launched this partnership
When NIL rules changed college sports, we saw an opportunity to invest directly in the young women and men who make Saturdays (and many weeknights) in Tallahassee so electric. By collaborating with Postgame - the No. 1 agency for large-scale athlete–brand campaigns, we created a program that:
- Puts real dollars in the pockets of local student-athletes.
- Produces authentic social content that shows off BOB Hotels’ vibe to visiting fans.
- Deepens our ties to the Florida State and Florida A&M communities we already serve.

What went down at BOB Hotels Tallahassee
- Full-team staycation: Athletes checked in with a few extra teammates to soak up the BOB Hotels vibe together.
- Coffee-bar pit stop: for sunrise cappuccinos and mid afternoon iced lattes
- Artisan pizza gatherings: that turned into impromptu team dinners (second welcomed)
- Heavenly-bed downtime: Post-practice naps and late-night movie marathons proved hard to resist
Why NIL + hospitality matters
- Economic impact stays local. Dollars from every booking circulate right back to student-athletes, not just big-box sponsorships.
- Authenticity over ads. Visitors trust real athlete recommendations more than polished promos.
- Shared pride. Guests see their favorite players on-site; athletes feel the community behind them.
Our collaboration even made Postgame’s NIL newsletter highlight reel as a model regional campaign.
