As college basketball fans get ready for the Final four, the PA Chamber’s bracket is heating up as well.
The chamber’s “Coolest Thing Made in PA” competition is gearing up for a third week, as more than 40,000 votes have been cast across the PA Chamber’s social media pages.
The competition, which started out with 64 contestants, now stands at 16 as public voting begins again on X Tuesday at Noon.
In the Eastern division the remaining contests are:
Crayola Crayons v. Dalessandro’s Cheesesteaks
and
Peeps v. Martin & Co. Guitars
“Each year, the ‘Coolest Thing Made in PA’ contest has proven that Pennsylvanians vote with their stomachs – and this year is no exception,” said PA Chamber President and CEO Luke Bernstein. “There are heavy hitters in food and beverage remaining in this contest that have earned serious brand loyalty, along with household names that will be hard to beat. We’re excited to see how the round of 16 plays out and encourage everyone to get out the vote!”
With the number of contestants being narrowed to 16, the pace of the contest picks up in week three, with two rounds being held in the same week. The third round will run from April 1 to April 2, and the fourth round will take place from April 3 to April 4.
