Aaron's Hosts Michael Waltrip Family Vacation Sweepstakes Winners At Miami Race

Elizabeth Chancey, a Tennessee resident and huge racing fan, won the Michael Waltrip Family Vacation Sweepstakes and brought along her husband and two friends to Miami for an all-expenses-paid vacation. They enjoyed a shopping spree on Saturday at a Miami Aaron's store. They were joined by racing legend Michael Waltrip, who helped pick out their furniture, appliances and electronics.

On Sunday, Waltrip and Aaron's treated the family to a VIP Racetrack Experience at the Homestead-Miami Speedway. The family also received a private tour of the garages at the track with the racing star.

"The excitement has been building for this sweepstakes and we're thrilled that the winners were able to enjoy a beautiful weekend in Miami with Aaron's and Michael Waltrip," said Andrea Freeman, Aaron's Vice President of Marketing. "It was no accident that this coincided with the holiday season, as we were looking for ways to show our appreciation to our loyal customers. We were especially excited to give these racing fans an exclusive racetrack experience with Michael, who we've worked with for many years."

Waltrip has been featured in Aaron's commercials this year and has raced with the Aaron's logo visible on his car as an associate sponsor. The Aaron's Waltrip Family Vacation Sweepstakes, which ran from May 2 to May 26, received thousands of entries across the country.

"My partnership with Aaron's continues to present me with new opportunities to give back to my fans," said Waltrip. "I had a wonderful time in Miami with Beth and her family and was excited to see how much they enjoyed the race on Sunday."
