I have
been spending all my time trying to take the top ten games throughout history
and implement them into the world of sports. Last week, I talked about monopoly,
but this time I'm taking this a step further and getting the fans
involved even more. Allowing the fans to interact with each other
brings a new aspect to the world of entertainment.
Have you
ever heard of the game 1 vs. 100? One player is selected to play the game
as The "One" against 100 other people, collectively known as The
Mob. Depending on the format of the game, the player can be selected randomly
from the Mob, or selected independently. To win the game outright, the "One" must
eliminate all 100 members of the Mob by answering questions correctly.
In order to
execute this game at a low-cost, we need a long-term system. We need
to eliminate from our brains the thought of a text-based system. Instead of
having people text an answer, your team should have a mobile application. This
mobile app needs to have an online store filled with products for purchase. The
team app also needs a calendar of events, game schedule, roster, tickets, and
mobile games. In the mobile games section, the user should be able to create a
profile and play the many "in game" competitions your team
offers.
So how do we
play 1 vs. 100? It's simple, select one lucky fan to play live at your venue.
The other fans watching the game at the venue can log on to their account and
play the quizzed based game live with the lucky selected fan. To
increase the odds, you will have 1 vs. everyone. They will have to answer many
questions till they eliminate everyone. This technology is in
fact available and mimics the live questioning platform of Viggle.
So how is
this low cost? The application should cost in between $10,000-$15,000. This
includes adding a store and many sections to navigate in between the
application. Because this is an application, it allows varieties of advertising
to take place within the app. If you're team
is successful, advertising within the application will be an excellent source
of revenue to pay for the cost of the app.
This is
another great opportunity to give the people the power to entertain themselves and advertise on one of the screens 4 screens of marketing. I hope that my blog is inspiring many of you to create your own entertainment
within your venue. If your team is having roadblocks in the creative process I
urge you to get together (not just for drinks) and get back to the roots of
entertainment. Trust me, you will be surprised with what you come up with.
Take
Care
