FOX Super 6 UFL contest recap: Winners use money for trips, donations
Is there anything more enjoyable than bonding over football with loved ones while winning some cash?
People get to do just that weekly with our free-to-play FOX Super 6 contest.
With opportunities to win thousands of dollars, the Super 6 game gives fans a new reason to get excited about sports.
The contest — which has been live since the beginning of the 2023 NFL season — has already given away a ton of cash.
More than $286,000 in cash and prize packages has been won in total across four Super 6 contests to date (NFL, NFL Network, Daytona 500 and UFL).
Now that the UFL season has wrapped up, here's a look back at some of our recent winners.
Football Fan Wins Big
Every week, real people win real money playing the contest.
Take Calvin from Memphis.
Not only does Calvin watch the UFL weekly, but he is also a huge Dallas Cowboys fan. When asked for a 2024 prediction for his favorite team, Calvin didn’t show much optimism.
"I expect them to perform as they have done the last 30 years: play well in the regular season and then figure out a way to lose in the first or second round of the playoffs."
Calvin from Memphis was a big FOX Super 6 winner this season
He says that he has been playing the Super 6 contest since it first started and his winning strategy is to "look at the matchups and how the teams and players have fared in previous games."
Calvin’s family was not entirely surprised by his big win, as he had won some other big sports contests in the past.
The Memphis native will be using his prize winnings toward upcoming moving expenses.

Commanders Fan Gets Lucky with UFL
Now, let us travel to Lanham, Maryland.
Jewel was in complete shock when she "won the biggest prize of her life", playing Fox Super 6. She made her picks by "watching the games and paying attention to the stats."

As a Washington Commanders fan, she is hoping that her squad has more success in 2024 than last season.
Good Samaritan, Good Fortune
Finally, let's travel to Fairhaven, Massachusetts, where Jimbo used his "random picks" to win big.
Fontes, a massive Boston sports fan, plans to donate some of his prize money to charity. Fontes has made a huge difference in the Boston community, and recently shaved his head at Gillette Stadium in support of the charity called One Mission: Buzz Off For Kids With Cancer.
As you've seen with Calvin, Jewel and Jimbo, real people play these contests and win. What's even more appealing is that you don't need a daring strategy before finalizing your picks.
Let's dive into some of the most interesting questions and answers from the UFL season.
