Introducing the Kentucky 811 Video Madness Tournament

 This April, in recognition of National Safe Digging Month, Kentucky 811 is bringing a little competition to safety awareness.

We’re putting some of our most popular 811 videos head-to-head in a bracket-style tournament, and we need your help to choose a winner.

Each matchup features two videos competing for your vote. Watch both, pick your favorite, and cast your vote by commenting on our Facebook posts. Winning videos will advance through the bracket until one is crowned the ultimate Kentucky 811 champion.

Not only is this a fun way to revisit these videos, but it’s also a chance to highlight the importance of contacting Kentucky 811 before you dig. Every video shares an important message that helps prevent damage, protect communities, and keep everyone safe.

As a bonus, every vote counts as an entry for a chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card.

Follow along throughout April, cast your votes, and help us decide which video takes the title. Because when it comes to digging safely, everyone wins.
