Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and the Highway Safety Network (HSN) partnered with pizzerias in several counties to urge designated driving through a box top advertising campaign ahead of Sunday’s matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. The partnership coincides with a national Super Bowl Impaired Driving Campaign running Thursday, February 5, through Sunday, February 8.

The following locations will participate in a box top advertising campaign:

• Bedford County: Fox’s Pizza Den, Bedford.
• Blair County: Best Way Pizza of Altoona, Duncansville, East Freedom, and Hollidaysburg; Cobrh’s, Altoona; Front Street Subs, Duncansville; D’Ottavio’s, Hollidaysburg.
• Cambria County: Best Way Pizza, Ebensburg.
• Centre County: Pizza Mia, Bellefonte; Brothers Pizza, Philipsburg.
• Clearfield County: Buck’s Pizza, Clearfield; Buck’s Pizza, DuBois.
• Clinton County: Original Italian Pizza, Lock Haven; Original Italian Pizza, Mill Hall.
• Elk County: Paesano II Pizza, Ridgway.
• Huntingdon County: Best Way Pizza, Huntingdon.
• McKean County: Pepe’s Pizzeria, Kane.

State Farm funded the purchase of the flyers distributed in Centre, Clearfield, Clinton, Elk, and McKean counties through its Good Neighbor Citizenship Company Grants. They award these grants to build safer, stronger, and better-educated communities across the United States by focusing on safety, education, and community development.

“We want to encourage everyone to make good choices this weekend,” said HSN Community Traffic Safety Project Coordinator Josh Woods. “Regardless of who you’re rooting for Sunday, you can be part of the winning team by designating a sober driver or being a responsible party host.”

The box top campaign serves as a unique opportunity to engage community partners in the annual effort to keep fans safe on the biggest football weekend of the year.

“We value the continued support for this initiative that we get from so many area businesses,” said PennDOT District 9 Safety Press Officer Monica Owens. “Every year the number of participants grows, giving us greater opportunities to spread such an important message about the dangers of impaired driving.”

Whether you’re planning to watch the game at your favorite local eatery or hosting a party of your own, PennDOT urges responsible party hosting and offers the following tips.

• If you’re the designated driver, take the job seriously. Enjoy the food but not the booze.
• If you’re hosting the party, ask guests to pace themselves, enjoy the food, and drink plenty of water.
• Help your designated drivers out by serving some non-alcoholic drinks.
• If you know someone has been drinking and they try to leave, take their keys, and help them get home safely or offer to let them spend the night.

According to 2025 preliminary PennDOT data, there were 287 crashes resulting in five fatalities and 176 injuries on Super Bowl Sunday through 6:00 AM the following day. Of those crashes, 40 were alcohol related resulting in one fatality and 23 injuries. Another 17 of those crashes were drug related resulting in two fatalities and 13 injuries.
