Online Prediction Contest: Three Guesses for $10,000!

For 5 days this December listeners of a Philadelphia sports radio station were directed to the station’s website to enter their email address and take their best guess as to who the next Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator and Defensive Coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles would be… even though the current coach hadn’t yet been sacked! On the final day of the promotion, 5 lucky registrants were selected to become eligible for a chance to win the insured prize: $10,000, compliments of Odds On!

And now we wait … until May 1, 2013, when it’s expected that the three positions will have been filled and if any of those 5 lucky contestants has selected a winning combination of names, they will score $10,000 paid for by Odds On Promotions.

This December, Zak Woodhead, Odds On’s Risk Manager, worked with the MGM Grand and Exclusive Genetics in running a million-dollar promotion tied to the National Final Rodeo in Las Vegas.
