The Milwaukee Bucks are looking for passionate and creative Bucks bloggers to enter the first-ever Bucks.com 6th Fan Blogger contest. Finalists will receive the chance to blog during an upcoming Bucks game and the overall winner will be given the opportunity to blog at additional Bucks games the balance of the season.
“Every season we see more and more of our fans sharing their opinions and observations of our team on various sites online,” said Vice President of Business Operations John Steinmiller. “This competition gives those passionate writers a chance to win a unique Bucks experience and the means to write about that experience on our team web site.
“Bucks.com consistently ranks in the top ten among NBA web sites when it comes to original content. This is another avenue of providing visitors to our site with fresh material and independent opinions.”
The contest is free and easy to enter. Fans simply need to visit Bucks.com and explain why they have what it takes to be the Bucks.com 6th Fan Blogger. The catch? They have to do it in exactly 24 words – no more and no less.
Six finalists will be chosen based on the creativity of their 24-word entries. The group will receive credentials to Milwaukee’s matinee matchup against the NBA World Champion Boston Celtics on Sunday, March 15 where they will blog about their game experience – commenting on both the action on and off the court.
The six writers will have their articles posted on Bucks.com that evening and fans will be able to decide which blog is the best via an online vote that will run through March 20. The person with the winning entry will be extended an opportunity to blog at future Bucks games. That winner will be announced at Milwaukee’s home game against Portland on March 21.
