Nevada Casino Holds Unique Golf Shootout at their Property!

When you hear the words shoot-out, island, golf and casino, odds are you’re thinking, “Ah yes, I know exactly what this promotion is about … a promotion at a golf course in the Carribean.”

So the odds are good that the last thing you’d be imagining is a story about a casino in Nevada, insuring a golf shootout… using their own off-shore ‘island’ as the green!

During this innovative “desert” island hole in one contest, the first 200 players to pay a nominal entry fee will receive a drawing ticket and a chance to hit a uniquely numbered golf ball 150 yards, onto an island.

During the qualifying round, if a player’s ball lands in one of the three lucky “prize circles” on the island, -or- if the player makes a hole in one, they’ll not only become eligible to play in the final round, but will score a prize as well!  If their ball lands in ring #1, they will be awarded a BBQ package; ring #2, a beach package and ring #3, a Polo shirt.   Those who make a hole-in-one during the qualifying round win $1,000 cash.

After the initial qualifying round, 5 randomly selected players, who have not already won a prize on the first go around, will get one final chance to win big … but this time, if they  ace the hole on the island green… they’ll win a brand new 2012 “Fat Boy” Harley-Davidson, paid for by no other than Odds On Promotions!

According to Brent Kelly, Odds On’s Southwest Business Development Manager, “Whether it’s a putting contest at an awards banquet or a hole-in-one contest taking place on the roof of your office building, you can hold a promotion like this virtually anywhere.  That’s the best part about insuring a golf promotion – versatility.”

“Hole” Lot of Dough: Baseball Team Launches Creative Homer Hole Promotion

Grab yourself a cup of coffee and get ready to read about a seriously fun way a minor league baseball team is showcasing the sponsor of their season-long Homer Hole promotion.

After securing a local doughnut shop as the sponsor of the team’s Homer Hole contest, a Midwestern minor league baseball team will be placing an enormous doughnut on the outfield wall as the target.

That’s right, if a member of the team hits a homerun though the “doughnut hole”,  a lucky fan will win $20,000, paid for by Odds On Promotions.

“Homer Holes are HOT this season”, stated Linda Thomson, Sports Promotions Specialist with Odds On Promotions.  “As long as the target opening meets the appropriate specifications, you can be as creative as you’d like.  And, depending on the type of baseball promotion you’re running, Odds On can even customize and a ship a target template to you.”

While using a “donut hole” was clearly a great way for this team to create an affordable big dough promotion that showcases the sponsor’s business, it also presents a great way to “brainstorm” additional sponsors…

Automotive/tire companies  –   Have fans pitch a baseball through a giant steering wheel or tire.

Jewelry stores – Talk about a great way to give away a ‘diamond’ ring, tennis bracelet or necklace!

Home Improvement or Hardware Stores – Sponsors and fans could go ‘nuts’ over any number of home improvement products from washers and windows to circular saws!

Looking for more great ways to capture additional sponsor dollars this baseball season?
