D.C. United’s Odd Fan Sweepstakes
July 17, 2008
D.C. United wants you to see them take on the New York Red Bulls in August.
And Amtrak is going to get you there.
In the strangest team promotion since Big Tigger linked up with the Washington Wizards, D.C. United is collaborating with Amtrak to send you and a friend up to New York for this riveting MLS match-up. Riveting loosely meaning “I’d rather watch fly fishing.”
If you’re going to send your fans somewhere, and it has to be a divisional opponent, try Chicago or Toronto. That promotion would involve a flight, and heightened expectations of traveling.
Don’t put your fans on a train. Chances are, your biggest fans ride the freakin’ Metro everyday and dying to escape sickly middle managers, ghetto-ass secretaries and copies of the Washington Post left behind with the sports section taken out.
