Interested in going to and covering the MLB All-Star Game, Pacman-Bradley, Pacman-Marquez, Silva-Sonnen (UFC) amongst other primetime sporting events? Yeah, I am too.
Maybe I should apply for this myself. But here we are again. Also, how does this get 1K+ comments? Grant Brisbee's the best.
There are worse things in the world than live-tweeting from the XFINITY Twitter handle while getting paid to watch someone beat the living crap out of someone else. In person. So if you are, like me, a soon-to-be unemployed college graduate, give this a try.
XFINITY is once again hosting the Ultimate Sports Social Media Job
contest, in search of a dynamic individual to become the new voice of
@XFINITYSports. Interested applicants can enter now through February
18 at www.facebook.com/xfinity.
Ten semifinalists will be invited to compete at XFINITY Live! in
Philadelphia, PA on March 23rd. The top 8 submissions will
automatically move on to the semifinals with the remaining 2 spots to
be given to the winner of the Wild Card voting. Ten Wild Card
contestants will be announced on March 4, giving fans the chance to
vote for their favorite contestant at Facebook.com/xfinity! The two
Wild Card contestants the fans select as the best new voice of XFINITY
Sports will join the other semifinalists in the next round of
competition.
The semifinals, hosted at XFINTY Live!, will give each contestant the
chance to show off their social media skills by participating in a
series of challenges designed to push them to the limit! Joins us at
XFINITY Live! to cheer on your favorite contestant, enjoy free food,
meet prominent Philadelphia talent, and watch March Madness.
Only five finalists will receive the opportunity to travel to a MLB
Opening Weekend game to participate in the final challenge. Each
finalist will be given VIP access to select MLB batting practices,
press boxes and more to get a chance showcase their experience and
knowledge via Twitter, while also supporting XFINTIY products and
brand messaging. In the end, one contestant will be named the next
voice of XFINITY Sports!
