Abstract:
The use of social media platforms, such as Twitter/X, have become commonplace in the sport industry. Through social media, Sport organizations and sponsors are attempting to leverage these platforms to connect and engage with fans (Gibbs, O’Reilly, & Brunette, 2014). Previous research has investigated social media content from the perspective of the sport organization or athlete (Eddy, Cork, Lebel, & Howie, 2021; Pegoraro, 2010). However, there is a dearth of literature investigating the social media activity of sponsors during an event to activate their relationship with a sport organization. Further, there is little literature which has examined social media activity, sponsorship, and content for large-scale participant driving events. Therefore, the purpose of this case study was to investigate how sponsors of the 2017 and 2018 Boston Marathon used their Twitter/X accounts during the race. The researchers collected tweets which were categorized into one of seven emerging themes. The data revealed that sponsored posts were either product focused or used to motivate participants or spectators. The remainder of the tweets were focused on customer service activity dealing with product complaints
