Increase Fan Attendance By Using Sports Inflatables

By Stacey Massey


Whether it be high school, college or professional level sports, promotion is an important element behind increasing attendance at games. Without fans to watch, no money is generated and the sports program begins to suffer. Sports inflatables are exciting forms of promotion and entertainment that draw people to these games.

Both high school and college are popular settings for inflatable tunnels. They can be used during any type of event, including hockey, soccer, basketball and football games. The home team will make their entrance through the tunnel and burst through the end unexpectedly. This unexpected entrance usually creates a lot of cheering for the players, as the fans rise to their feet in surprise.

Sponsored ads can also be placed on these inflatable tunnels, which draws the attention of new supporters. Essentially, you can turn a fun addition to a game into another marketing tool. These ads are usually paid, so you are generating income for the sports program at the same time.

Another popular option is inflatable tents. They can be seen at sporting events of all types. They can be set up quickly and an exclusive area for the fans is instantly created. They also make a great area to do an autograph signing with players. You can also place sponsor advertisements on these items and increase potential sponsorship exposure even further.

For baseball games, inflatable batting cages are a great option. They provide interactive entertainment and let fans show off some of their own batting skills. You could either charge for fans to show their skills or you could simply run a giveaway promotion. Options for good prizes include money, free tickets to future games and team apparel. Interactive activities, such as this, have an amazing ability to draw a large crows, which can fill those empty seats quickly.

Inflatables are convenient enough to use during home or away games. Once deflated and folded up, they are small to transport. While on the road, they can provide a boost to visiting team attendance. Home game sales are always much easier to get and have the greatest financial benefit, but teams still need their fans while they are playing in other cities.

Local media usually love events that have several inflatables featured. With a tunnel and a tent for an impromptu meet and greet, local media is more likely to do a feature story on the team. A local news feature can get the attention of many new fans and provide enough incentive for them to start attending games.

Sports inflatables are a cheap investment that can be used for many years of promotion and marketing. With proper care and storage, they should last for a long time, before they need replacing. They create exciting experiences for the fans and provide interactive fun for ticket holders of all ages. They also generate a substantial amount of income through the display of sponsor advertising. Many new sponsors can be found when new methods of advertising are presented to them.

The Insanity Program Review

By Jody Whitley


So you have decided to look up reviews on insanity, that is great! It's the first step in transforming your body. First of all, this is an insanely hard to do set of workout DVD's but you do not have to do it all without taking extra breaks at first. When you first start out it's hard. It gets very much easier the more fit you become and even addicting if you keep it up and start getting in awesome shape. I am somewhat overweight and just shy of 40, but I have dreams of getting back into my 20 something body. I did and as I decided to seize the day and go for it. Well, I'll say I am not sorry in the least bit. You may be wondering where you can order Insanity Workout Houston TX. Well, if you're not in the Houston area you can still order at the second site; read on below.

My muscles are currently screaming, and really every bit of me hurts. Every day, I both love and dread pushing play on this dvd, because I know what will happen when I do. I will spend forty five minutes gasping around, heart pounding, sweat running off me, desperately trying to keep up with a workout designed by fitness demigods. Afterwards, when I can catch my breath and pull myself up of the ground.

I feel so good it is not even funny. Yesterday when I finished my workout and was talking to my wife, I said "You know what I feel like? I feel like I'm on vacation!". You know, that feeling you get on day one of vacation when you have the whole thing stretching before you, when there is a cool drink in your hands and not a care in the world? That's how I feel when my blood is pumping, when my body is sore and I am really so proud of myself. I can't even begin to keep up with this video: The Insanity Program... I do however keep my heart rate up, which is with the max interval training and I have a great time, and I try to get a little better every day. I'm not done with the program yet! I hope I have the stamina to keep it up, but for now, this is fantastic.

The DVD's themselves are good, the music is fine, the instructor is incredible and never demeaning. I feel like he is speaking directly to me and he is very encouraging. I am also encouraged when the folks exercising with him can't keep up, because I know that if these very in shape people can't do it, then I am in good company. The rest of the package is fine. I'm on weight watchers, so I am not using BeachBody's eating plan. I'm not changing diets mid-stream.

The workout calendar is nice, I keep it up to date and it is a good motivational tool for me. The DVD case is compact and sturdy. It IS a little pricey, but I think that it is well worth it so far. It is giving me back my self respect. Not to mention making me addicted to looking better as I become more in shape I can't get enough of it, and I never thought I'd say something that a few years ago being the chunky monkey I was. Give it a try.
