Touchdown Chowdown Touches Down


So, as some of you doubtlessly remember from having read and carefully annotated all of my previous blog posts, we recently ran a Reverse Auction contest called Touchdown Chowdown. This was a contest that ran for a month where viewers and texters like you texted in bids in hopes of coming out at the end of the contest, with the lowest, unique bid and therefore, winning the contest. Many of you loyal viewers/testers played and interest was high enough to merit continued examination of whether such a program will be feasible in the future.

In case you were wondering, someone did win this inaugural Reverse Auction contest, right here on TXT-TV. 

Last Thursday, Neil L. from Scorborough, Ontario, and a friend drove down to Montreal as part of the Touchdown Chowdown grand prize, which included 2 primo tickets to see the Argos take on the Als at the newly renovated Molson Stadium, 2 nights accommodation at the Hotel du Fort, a gas card to get from Scarborough to Montreal and back, and last but not least, $500 worth of eats and drinks at some of Montreal’s finest pubs, including: McKibbins Irish Pub, PJ O’Hara’s, Ziggy’s Pub and the Irish Embassy.

We trust that Neil and his friend had a blast in Montreal and remind you, my faithful readers, to stay tuned to TXT-TV for more Reveres Auction contests – you never know, you could be our next winner!
