New York Giants Announce 10 Contest Winners

May 25, 2011

NEW YORK – After 75 days of the NFL lockout nonsense, football fans finally got some good news. The New York Giants have announced the 10 lucky winners of their recent fan contest. The 10 winners (over 1,300 entries were received) will have their image placed on a home game ticket for a real Giants game. On behalf of nygreporter.com, I would like to say congratulations to the lucky winners and true blue Giants fans who shared their stories.

The 10 winners will go to the Timex Performance Center in early June for a photo shoot and also get a tour of the billion dollar New Meadowlands stadium (it still has that brand new stadium scent). They also get two free tickets to the regular or preseason game where their photo’s adorn the game tickets. The top 20 fans (top 20 by fan voting) were considered finalists for this contest and the 10 who did not win the big prize will get a $200 gift certificate to purchase Giants merchandise from the Giants store. I still think that is a great prize in itself to be honest. I have to applaud the Giants organization for getting creative during this lull in football news and activities. Now we only have to wonder if there will be a 2011 NFL season for the fans to enjoy (this has to be the most used phrase in all of 2011 sports).

Message to the kids who entered the contest: Remember kids, if you were one of the fans that missed out this time, it does not mean that you are not a Giants Super fan. There were over 1,300 people who entered the contest and the team had to pick the winners based on all the fan votes they got. Keep your heads up and give it another try when a different contest comes along. How about this for a consolation prize, Fleet Week has arrived in New York. Maybe you can go and check out some of the cool Navy ships and aircraft that will be in town for the next few days. They were going up and down the Hudson river today to kick it off. Check it out over the weekend. God bless and protect our military all over the world!

Here are the 10 New York Giants fans who won.

1. Hilary Stolz

2. Ed Magenheimer

3. Adam Mihan

4. Monique Titus

5. Paula Crowe

6. Adrian Gennusa

7. George Svirsky

8. Brian Revfi

9. Tina Lester

10. William Bradley

It’s like the old saying goes, you have to be in it to win it. Well done Giants fans!

The Voting Has Started for the Giants Fan Contest

May 18, 2011

NEW YORK – Tons of anxious fans will be hoping to win the New York Giants fan contest that ends next week. Voting for the contest began today after the team received all of the entries sent in by fans. The Giants are not accepting any more entries but instead have begun the voting process by fans. I’m very excited to see who the final 10 winners will be on May 24, 2011. Please remember fans that the contest ends on May 24, 2011 at 5:00 PM EST. The 10 winners will be announced sometime later that night on Giants.com and facebook. Anyone interested in reading some wonderful fan stories and seeing some very unique photo’s of Giants fans are encouraged to check out the Giants facebook page at the following link http://on.fb.me/msbHyP and vote!

There are so many interesting stories to read that I think you will be surprised. This contest really knocks out two birds with one stone. First, they provide an incredibly unique opportunity for true blue fans to win something you literally cannot buy with money anywhere. You must win the votes in order to have your photo adorning a New York Giants home game ticket. The second thing this contest does is give true fans the chance to read some of the most interesting stories I have ever heard and to see some of the craziest photo’s I’ve ever seen. All of this of course is done with class and with good intentions. The Giants are a classy organization and would not allow anything to be out of line. They understand that a lot of their fans are kids and try to keep everything as family friendly as possible, just like we do here at nygreporter.com.

Will you be voting for the top 10 winners on facebook for the Giants ticket contest? Are you a Giants fan who has already entered the contest yourself? Let us know what you think. We will also be listing the top 10 winners here on our site for all to see. I want to wish everyone luck and remember that you are still a winner even if your entry isn’t chosen. You’re a winner simply because you are a New York Giants fan!

Once again, the contest ends on May 24, 2011 at 5:00 PM EST. Facebook.com/NewYorkGiants or http://on.fb.me/msbHyP

New York Giants Create Unique Contest for Fans

May 3, 2011

NEW YORK – The New York Giants plan on showing their fans just how much they appreciate them very soon. The Giants are holding a unique contest that will place photos of true blue Giants fans on their season tickets. This is something that I have never heard of before and certainly something that I do not recall the Giants ever doing before (in fact, they haven’t in 86 years, this is a first!). They are asking fans to send in their best fan photo’s and story for the chance to win this unique prize. Pretty cool huh?

I will leave all of the information you will need below. The contest begins May 2, 2011 and ends on May 18, 2011, so be sure to send in your pics right away! To enter the contest, simply visit Giants.com/TicketContest and submit your entry. The Giants will then select 20 finalists who will be in the running to win.

Starting on May 18, 2011, after the entry period expires, fans will have the oppurtunity to vote on facebook for their favorite fan stories and photo’s at Facebook.com/NewYorkGiants which will narrow the field of entries to 10 finalists. The 10 entries that DO NOT make it to the winners circle will be awarded a store credit or receive a $200 gift card for the Giants online store to purchase Giants merchandise. Not a bad second place prize at all if you ask me.

The top 10 winners of the contest will have their name, image or likeness adorn tickets to a specific home game (preseason and regular season) during the 2011 season. They will be recognized at the game as the winners and also receive two free tickets to the game. This is pretty cool and something that will be a unique keepsake for the lucky 10 winners. Remember fans, there is a limited amount of time for you to enter, so get your cameras out and tell the world your story and why you are the New York Giants ultimate fan!

Are you the biggest New York Giants fan? Do you plan on entering the contest?

Once again, simply visit Giants.com/TicketContest to get your entry in early. Good Luck everyone!
