duus Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Well ... none yet. But wouldn't it be interesting and fun for some Cincinnati store to offer a promotional similar to the one that the Chicago furniture store did? The Bengals have upcoming divisional games against the Browns and Steelers. What ideas do you have that would be fun to watch/root for? Shutout? Points scored? Sacks? Furniture give-away? Hmmm ... how about a fire-arms shop give-away? I don't know, I can't think of anything specific off the top of my head, but I'm betting you guys can come up with some good ones.

duus Posted September 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 What did the Chicage furniture store do ?? I don't quite get it...WHODEY !!!Sorry ... thought everyone had seen this. Basically, the guy who owns a store decided to have a weekend promotional where, if the Bears shutout the Packers, they would all be reimbursed for their purchases. Although he had insurance, it did cost $300k. He said on Cold Pizza that it made for an interesting time watching the game for himself, the purchasers, and the community. Could you imagine Browns or Steeler fans getting all crazy if a local Cincinnati store offered a similar 'shut-out', etc. promotional. No big deal, but just apparently made the weekend more interesting in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 What did the Chicage furniture store do ?? I don't quite get it...WHODEY !!! They offered free furniture to people if the Bears shutout the Packers. All said and done, I think the guy gave away around $300,000 worth of furniture! Just like paying for advertising, I guess...
