Jamaican quartet conquers City of Love

Scotiabank credit card holders feel the Olympic rush in Paris

Scotiabank’s Pursuit to Paris credit card winners Antonio Curtis and his son Alijah, Petula and Howard Senior are immersed in an electric atmosphere to witness the world’s top athletes in action.

“We’re thrilled to provide our customers with this once-in-a-lifetime experience,” said Tonya Russell, Scotiabank’s marketing head. “Seeing our winners cheer on the athletes and soak up the excitement is truly rewarding.”

As they watched the athletes push their limits, the group felt a rush of adrenaline, “It’s exhilarating to see these athletes perform live!” shared Antonio Curtis. “Their dedication and passion are truly inspiring.”

Petula Senior added her account of the Scotiabank-sponsored experience, “The speed, the strength, the agility — it’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before. We’re so grateful to experience this.”

The group’s excitement was palpable as they cheered on the athletes, their voices hoarse from chanting and screaming. Howard Senior summed up the experience: “This is more than just watching a competition — it’s feeling the pulse of human achievement.”

As they left the stadium, the winners were still buzzing from the Olympic energy. “I will always remember this!” said Alijah, “Thanks Scotiabank.”

Scotiabank’s Pursuit to Paris promotion had promised an unforgettable experience and for these four lucky winners, it delivered. They left this adventure with their hearts full of joy, minds inspired by the Olympic spirit, and memories that will last a lifetime.
