FANS CAN NOW PLAY THE BIG GAME - A FOOTBALL GAME WHERE THE ADS COUNTPay 2.6 million for a 30 second Super Bowl XLI ad spot and the audience will want to watch the commercials? Regardless of the amount paid, quality, or uniqueness of the ads, the fact is commercials are an interruption of the televised sports entertainment, until now.
With the introduction of the patent pending Tempt Destiny football card game, devout football fans, friends, and family members alike can now interact with the entire sports broadcast, including the commercials, as an extension of their entertainment. Players — already gathered around the TV for a football game — are dealt seven cards, each of which identifies a certain event, such as a touchdown, penalty, quarterback sack, beer commercial, etc. Each event is assigned a point value, and players are awarded points when the event matches the card in their hand. To keep the game playing active during commercial breaks, players can also exchange cards and play the commercial cards included in the game. So, for example, when a auto commercial airs, a player with an auto commercial card will receive points just as he would for any other event during the game. The person with the most points at the end of a quarter wins that hand (baseball, basketball, car racing, soccer, and hockey versions of the game are under development).
During the month of January, 2007, approximately 8,000 Tempt Destiny football card games have been distributed FREE to the public at PlayTD.com, to our troops overseas in Iraq and elsewhere, and at select locations in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. Game licensor and manufacturer, Maveric Inc. of Mount Laurel, NJ, is offering cash prizes to those who fill out the online survey and nominate, for the upcoming 2007 football edition, their favorite advertiser that they wish to be featured on the commercial cards of this unusual football card game where the commercials are as much a part of the play as the football game itself.
Maveric Inc. has been conducting meetings and discussions with TV Networks and some of their advertisers regarding the Tempt Destiny game and how best to make it available to the public. A TV Network branded version and or a retail version of the Tempt Destiny game are planed for the 2007 football season featuring the network advertisers on the commercial cards of the game.
