The study highlights the necessity of examining how congruence between a sports event and a sponsoring brand is related to brand image or brand attitude formation. An experimental design was used to test the hypotheses. To prevent leakage of information about the experimental stimulus, two experiments were implemented in different places at the same time. There was no exposure to either experimental stimulus in advance. A random sampling scheme was used for group allocation. The results indicated that attitude and image formation changed considerably when sports sponsorship was strongly related to a company’s corporate image. In general, consumers experience amicable and favorable reactions and evaluations of a company that sponsors sports events that are highly congruent with the company’s corporate image.
