"Watching Chad Ochocinco interact with fans outside of the cruiser was definitely a highlight of the event. There was so much genuine joy from both him and the fans, and these are the special moments that activations like this are all about. As a photographer and partnership activations specialist, this is exactly what I was hoping for!"
