[edit] Sugar Free Amp

I'm not sure how to go about doing this myself, I only edit wikipedia every now and then... Sugar Free amp actually has 5 calories, not 0 as many people tend to think. I've been waiting for it to come out for a while (I'm not diabetic, however sugar gives me gout, so I usually wait around for the sugar free versions after trying the normal kind) 70.56.243.61 08:51, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

The new flavors are out now, but i think there are 4 flavors —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.58.107.102 (talk) 22:05, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rename

Anyone have any objections to renaming this to "AMP Energy", since that's the name on the packaging now ("mountain dew" is very de-emphasized) —Random832 (contribs) 17:08, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind, I'm just gonna do it (since their website is ampenergy.com and the race they're sponsoring is called the AMP Energy 500) —Random832 (contribs) 17:09, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Marketing/Spam

Moving marketing garbage here

Advertising / Sponsorships

Most of AMP's advertising is created by the ad agency TracyLocke -- a Dallas, TX based firm that handles all of PepsiCo's marketing and in-store promotions.^{[citation needed]}

AMP split sponsorship with the National Guard of Dale Earnhardt, Jr.'s #88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Impala SS, which will run starting the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup season. AMP sponsored part-time driver Kevin Lepage for a few races in 2006, including the Daytona 500, where Lepage finished 25th.

AMP recently became sponsor of the UAW Ford 500 at Talladega, which means that the name of that race changes for the first time in four years, when the EA Sports 500 was renamed UAW-Ford 500.

AMP was the main sponsor of the 2008 NHL Winter Classic, an outdoor hockey game played between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Buffalo Sabres on January 1, 2008 at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo, New York. They were a major sponsor for the Super Bowl XLII, in Glendale, Arizona.

Major League Gaming has allowed AMP to sponsor many of its players competing with sponsors such as Microsoft, Sobe, Activision, Apple, etc.
