Gather round team, we’ve got a heck of a contest to tell you about. For their sweepstakes “Swing Into Spring“, The Day (New London, CT) teamed up with minor league baseball team Connecticut Tigers and Klingerman Travel, Inc. to offer 3 incredible prizes any baseball buff would be ecstatic to win. Grand prize is an all expense paid trip for 4 to spring training – whoo hoo! Not only does this contest have ideal sponsors and scream-worthy prizes, The Day hit a promotional homerun by using their masthead to advertise the contest. See below.
Contests that center entirely around an advertiser are not too common on the UPICKEM platform. This “Say Cheese!” photo contest from WXOS-FM (St. Louis, MO) is a fantastic example of this kind of contest. In an effort to promote Domino’s new Wisconsin 6-Cheese pizza, the station asks readers to submit a photo of themselves hammin’ it up (or, cheesin’ it up, if you will) for the camera. Great logo, great idea, great contest.
Ask a pro to win! KUTV-TV‘s (Salt Lake City, UT) talkin’ sports and sponsor Bank of American Fork team up to offer viewers a way to get more involved with this pro football season with this essay contest. Football fans submit questions for a pro and if talkin’ sports airs it, they win Famous Dave’s Super Cool Tailgate Meal (which includes ribs from St. Louis!)
Do you bleed blue? cougarblue.com and Provo Daily Herald (Provo, UT) team up to award the biggest BYU fan with a prize any fan would kill for: 2 tickets to the BYU versus Wyoming game. From the looks of the submission, lots of BYU fans bleed blue!
With the close of baseball season just around the corner, players and fans alike are wrought with worry over upcoming tradings and negotiations. Well, put those worries in your back pocket – All Around Philly (Philadelphia, PA) is here to keep Phillies favorite right fielder Jason Werth for another season with this genius (yes, genius) petition/tribute platform. Werth admirers visit this contest to voice their pleas to keep the star player on the Phillies, read articles from sports writers and browse snapshots from Werth’s blazing career. Genius.
Columbus Dispatch’s (Columbus, OH) site centered around parenthood – Columbus Parent gives doting moms and dads a chance to show off their tiny Ohio State fans. The cutest little fan’s (who can choose – one is cuter than the next!) parents will receive a $50 gift card to Buckeye Corner and tickets to the rival game against Purdue – great prizes.
