This year the Brooklyn Cyclones and the Bakersfield Blaze gave fans the chance to win big in series of creative Lucky Nth Fan baseball contests, insured by Odds On Promotions.

The Brooklyn Cyclones, who successfully ran a contest to recognize their 3 millionth fan a couple of years ago, upped the ante this season as they celebrated the arrival of their 4 millionth fan with a month-long Grand Slam Inning promotion and a Balls and Strike promotion.

During the 4^th inning of selected games during the month of August, a randomly selected fan had a chance to win 4 million pennies ($40,000) if there was a grand slam. Then, in September, when Pete Mulvey of Wantagh, Long Island  became the 4 millionth fan to walk through the gates, he was greeted with a confetti shower before he was whisked off to the field for interviews and a chance to win 4 million pennies ($40,000) in a Balls and Strikes promotion.

Unfortunately, Mulvey came up a bit short in his attempt to throw three strikes before tossing 4 balls through a target at center field.

Meanwhile, in California, the Bakersfield Blaze prepared for the arrival of their 5 millionth fan with a pair of season-long “enter to win” contests. Throughout the season fans were

invited to register once at every game for a chance to participate the team’s “Five Millionth Fan Frenzy” tied to a larger than life Fan Appreciation Night which took place on September 5th.   In addition to running a $500,000 Grand Slam Inning promotion during the 7^th inning, the Blaze also held a $50,000 Pick Till You Win Lucky Envelope contest giving a randomly selected lucky fan the chance to select from 40 envelopes each containing one of three prize symbols ($100, Season tickets for 2, or 5 million pennies ($50,000), paid for by Odds On. Along with giving fans the chance to win the insured prizes on September 5^th, the  Blaze handed out over $5,000 in guaranteed prizes (over 100 items) throughout the game to those who had registered during the season.

Planning on attending a wedding expo or bridal fair this Spring?

In addition to building an attractive display,  selecting just the right team to staff your booth, and creating a strong follow-up plan,  you’ve got to address the most important element of all:  creating a promotion or offer that will ensure a steady stream of qualified traffic to your booth.

While sending direct mail postcards, posting flyers, placing advertising, and telling prospective customers on phone, the web and on social media that you’ll be at a particular show are all important, just imagine how much more effective those mentions and ads will be when you say, “And, when you stop by our booth, you’ll not only get to speak with our staff, but you’ll also get a chance to win a $100,000 dream wedding.”

And Odds On Promotions makes it easy to do exactly that.  If you’re looking to capture more leads at your booth during your next bridal expo or wedding fair  then Odds On’s Dream Wedding Video Scratch & Win Game could be a great solution.

Brides and grooms simply select six spots on the tabletop or handheld tablet’s touchscreen grid, unveiling matching symbols, winning prizes based upon how many symbols they can find.  If a lucky couple can find 6 matching symbols, they’ll win their dream wedding (up to $100,000) and Odds On Promotions will pick up the tab. Even better, you can  set the prizes and frequency for up to five correct selections giving you the ability to offer promotional items or discounts.
