Dodge Dealership and High School “Hoop It Up” For the Holidays

Are you affiliated with a basketball team and looking to do something fun for the holidays?  If so, then you’ll love this story about this Missouri Dodge dealership and high school who have come together to hold one “slam dunk” of a promotion.

On December 29, Bloomfield High School in Bloomfield, Missouri will be holding a basketball tournament at their campus… with a little help from their sponsor, Blackwell-Baldwin Dodge.  But even more exciting than that, the Dodge dealership will be insuring a halftime promotion through Odds On Promotions!

All fans who show up to the game will be entered into a raffle where 1 lucky attendee’s registration form will give them the chance to participate in a 25-second series shootout promotion during halftime… worth one heck of a prize!

The lucky chosen fan will need to make 3 separate shots: a 15-foot shot from behind the free-throw line, a 19.9 foot shot from behind the three-point line and a final 43-foot shot from behind the half court line.  If all 3 shots are successfully made in succession, the lucky fan will be driving home in a brand new Dodge vehicle valued at $25,000!

Whether you’re aiming to draw a crowd, fundraise for a cause or just add a little something extra to your games this season, be sure to give us a call at 888-827-2249.  We have a vast selection of basketball promotions to choose from and all of our quotes are free and no-obligation!  You can also email us with any questions you have.

“It’s Not Midnight Madness… It’s Ice Jam!”

This Massachusetts college will be holding their Ice Jam again this year!

Ice Jam is a fun-filled annual event which celebrates the start of both basketball and hockey season.  It’s aimed particularly at students and allows them a chance to win college tuition.  With celebrity football players and rappers such as Vanilla Ice, this event was a real hit among the college crowd last year… to say the least!

This year, however, the event coordinators are stepping up their game even further… and insuring a hockey Red Line Shoot-Out promotion through no other than Odds On!  Here’s how it will work:

A celebrity NFL quarterback will throw a signed football into the student section of the stands.  Whoever catches it automatically qualifies to take the hockey shot from behind the red line out on the rink.  If the puck manages to go through the target opening, then that lucky individual will win $50,000 in college tuition, paid for by Odds On Promotions!

Are you a college or university looking to reward your students in a big way?  Give Linda Thomson a call at 800-771-0250 or email her and allow Odds On Promotions to help you build a fun and successful promotion that will have everyone continuously coming back for more!

UPDATE 10/25/2011:  Unfortunately, Matt Ryan will be unavailable to attend Ice Jam due to an injury he received in last weekends’ game between the Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions; therefore, the qualification process for the Red Line Shoot-Out promotion will be changed to a raffle drawing.  We did, however, manage to score this great advertisement (seen right).  Check it out!
