grassroots Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Just got an email from my son and a link to a Colts fan site that is trying to get themselves together to win a billboard for their team by voting for it. And get this, seems each time this tempt destiny billboard is done the Giants go on to win the Super Bowl! Wild stuff! Anyway, they are having a playoff competition RIGHT NOW and its our turn to place unlimited votes for the billboard. I am going to check this out ... Be right back.

grassroots Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 what is this 4 btw? The team with the most most votes gets a billboard in support of them going to the Super Bowl. No big deal, except that a Super Bowl victory happens to go with it!? What I found interesting is that when the Giants fans did not win it for their team for SB XXXV they lost without it. This is without a doubt some weird stuff. Maybe that's why I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grassroots Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Well although we did not get to the Super Bowl this year, we got a lot closer than anyone (including myself) thought we would. Anyway, they did the 4th Tempt Destiny billboard and guess which team was on it? You guess it - this thing is now 4-for-4! So what do you guys think, do we win this thing for the Jets next year or what? They have already started voting for next season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grassroots Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 The Vikings lead in this thing? Actually, the Vikings fans won it but lost it to the Saints both on and off the filed. Here's what they said on their press release: "February 2, 2010: The Saints Tempt Destiny billboard is being featured on all LAMAR Outdoor digital billboards located throughout the greater New Orleans area. As won by their fans at TemptDestiny.com, the Saints organization accepted this gift from their fans and approved the Saints Tempt Destiny billboard. The Saints fans cast 80,921 votes compared to the Colts fans 75,675 votes thereby winning the TD billboard in support of their team's SB XVIV bid on Sunday, February 7, 2010. This gift of support is being provided by Olympic artist, Manuel Morales, LAMAR Outdoor Advertising, and Crystal Clear Imaging." This means they will be doing a billboard each year beginning with the Saints XLIV billboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
