MELT brought the Tourism Board into the Southeastern Conference as a sponsor in 2011, and has worked in tandem with The Hangout’s Shaul Zislin and Charleston, SC-based FishBait Marketing’s Rick Jones to leverage the sponsorship to bring attention and visitors back down to the Gulf Coast, in the wake of the Deepwater Horizon spill of 2010.
