Carabao Energy Drink has teamed up with The Wokingham Paper to give five lucky Reading fans the chance to win a pair of tickets to Reading FC vs Preston on Saturday, March 30, at Madejski Stadium (3pm).

Currently in the third year of a global partnership with Reading FC, South-East Asian energy drink Carabao is the club’s principal partner featuring on the home and away kits again this season.

Carabao is not like other energy drinks.

It was invented in Thailand. By a rock star.

Called Aed Carabao.

Aed Carabao then named both his band and his new energy drink after a buffalo in South East Asia, called a Carabao, admired for its physical power, extraordinary stamina and unbreakable spirit.

Carabao is currently stocked in Sainsbury’s, Morrison’s, Co-op, WHSmith Travel, Booker, BP, Spar, Roadchef and Greene King as well as a significant number of independent retailers.
