Contestants call the plays to win season home game tickets
Calling all armchair sportscasters! Union Bank, N.A., in partnership with the San Diego Chargers, has announced the Armchair Sportscaster Contest where contestants can visit www.armchairsportscaster.com and submit a video of their best play-by-play commentary for the chance to win a pair of 2013-2014 season home game tickets and an appearance on the “Chargers Gameday” TV show.
Contestants can upload a video (or record it through the site’s record feature) of themselves commentating on one of six plays available — “Roughing the Kicker,” “4th and Inches,” “End Zone Dance,” “Immaculate Deception,” “94-Yard Punt Return,” and “Face Mask.” Videos will be posted online for community voting, and judges will select finalists based on the most votes, as well as creativity. In addition to winning a pair of 2013-2014 season home game tickets, the winner will be recognized at the December 16, 2012 San Diego Chargers vs. Carolina Panthers game and will enjoy a TV appearance on “Chargers Gameday” TV show to air on December 16, 2012.
“As a committed partner of the San Diego Chargers for more than ten years, Union Bank is proud to support the Chargers and demonstrate our commitment to San Diego,” said Union Bank Senior Vice President and Regional Executive Lawrence Henry. “We wanted a fun way to engage our customers and capture the enthusiasm of all San Diego Chargers fans.”
The public can view submissions and vote on favorites until the contest closes at 11:59 p.m. on November 27, 2012. The public can vote on as many videos as they’d like, and judges will select a finalist in each category. Of the final six videos, the one with the most votes will win.
The promotional and advertising program was created by San Francisco based Eleven Inc., advertising agency of record for Union Bank. For official rules and to enter the contest, visit www.armchairsportscaster.com or head to your nearest Union Bank branch for more information.
