Donors get a pair of tickets to the State Farm College Slam Dunk Contest, a part of the NCAA’s Final Four weekend.
South Texas Blood & Tissue donors have a chance to be a part of one of the nation’s most prestigious college basketball events, simply by giving blood at a Final Four Slam Dunk Blood Drive.
Anyone who donates blood at one of the designated community drives will receive two tickets to the 36th Annual State Farm College Slam Dunk and 3-Point Championships on April 3 at the Frost Bank Center (While supplies last).
The competitions have showcased some of the nation’s most talented men and women college players through the years. Former competitors include men’s stars Gary Payton, Steve Nash, Jason Terry, Kyle Korver, Bobby Hurley, Michael Finley, Allan Houston, and Denzel Valentine, and women’s standouts Cappie Pondexter, Katie Gearlds, Kristi Toliver, Odyssey Sims, Tiffany Hayes, Tiffany Mitchell, Ariel Atkins and Ryhne Howard.
