jkrdevil Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Given the attention to detail most people on here have figure this would be a good thing to post here. Reebok and the NHL jut sent out a press release announcing a find the logo contest for the Winter Classic. One player on the Blackhawks or Red Wings will be missing the Reebok logo on the back of their jersey. If you can find it you have a chance to win a rip to the Stanley Cup Final. Canton, MA / New York, NY ? In celebration of one of the National Hockey League?s most anticipated events ? the NHL Winter Classic? 2009 ? Reebok is offering fans an unprecedented experience through "NHL Winter Classic Reebok Lost Logo Challenge," a unique contest for both U.S. television viewers and in-stadium attendees that challenges fans to find the NHL player who is missing the Reebok logo from his jersey. On New Year's Day, 2009, Reebok will give each of the more than 40,000 fans who attend the NHL Winter Classic game between the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks at Wrigley Field a pair of binoculars to find the NHL player on the ice without a Reebok logo. Fans in the stands and those watching on television will have a chance to win. In-stadium contestants will be asked to enter via text or phone, while those tuning in on television will be able to enter online.http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=396822I can't wait to read some of the reaction to this contest on here.

ClutchIsEverything Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 That is an awesome idea! You are thinking about the brand as you participate and it's very simple. Great promotion. This, and the White Sox's 7-11 start time, are the two ideas over the last few years that I really kick myself for not thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 It is a great marketing idea.But as far as being a challenge, it's silly. I'm not suggesting it'll be obvious, but it's not something where the winners will be limited.No reason to rip on it. As mentioned, it's a great brand promotion. I just find it a little silly.

Sodboy13 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Not only is it a great marketing idea, it's a fine excuse to hand out binoculars, seeing as how no one in the stands will be able to see sh** otherwise.

That made me laugh.That's probably the reason they came up with this contest. Following a hockey game with bincoluars from left field will still be a challenge, let alone trying to find who doesn't have a reebok logo. I'll be it won't be a neck logo either, it'll be (or should I say won't be) on the sleeve where it will be nearly impossible to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logo will be absent from the rear neck.

jonas1111 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Wouldn't it be really easy for the people at home to find out who the player is? Considering there will be a pre-game show on CBC showing the warm-ups and stuff before the game even starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although most people watching on CBC are ineleigible to win as this is a US only contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonas1111 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 people who have seats behind the benches will be able to see it really well. They will probably pick some player who plays like 5-7 minutes a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I can just pay attention to the game without being tempted to look at the back of everyone's jersey every 2 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
