Domino's Pizza (NYSE: DPZ) has secured a one-year partnership, becoming the Official Pizza Sponsor of Groundhog Day – and will celebrate by offering free Handmade Pan Pizza to everyone attending the Punxsutawney event on Feb. 2, as well as the chance to win a grand prize trip to the Groundhog Day festivities in 2015.

Beginning today, fans can visit the Domino's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/dominos -- and vote on whether or not Punxsutawney Phil will see his shadow on Sunday. Fans who vote correctly will be entered for a chance to win a trip for two to Punxsutawney for Groundhog Day 2015. Or, if they can't make the trip – a $5,000 cash prize.

"I couldn't be more excited for Domino's, and it has been a lot of fun interacting with their Facebook fans this week prior to today's announcement," said Hall of Fame Quarterback Jim Kelly, who grew up just outside of Punxsutawney, PA and helped give Domino's gift cards to Facebook fans who took part in questions this week surrounding the upcoming big day.

"It has been a lot of fun this week, and we thank Jim Kelly for the help in getting us ready for this announcement," said Russell Weiner, Domino's Pizza chief marketing officer. "But the fun hasn't stopped – we still have many Handmade Pan Pizzas to give away, as well as the grand prize sweepstakes trip for one lucky fan who chooses Sunday's outcome correctly."
