Reference, this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=419509.0 starting at this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=419509.msg4609656#msg4609656

I will pay $50 USD via BTC for the best sign idea to be displayed at Super Bowl XLVIII. The goal is to have it captured on National TV with a viewership of over 100M people. As expressed in a post in a thread (linked above), guerilla marketing is our best option this year to have Bitcoin seen at the Super Bowl without having to pay $4M for a 30 second slot.

You don't have to submit an image to win the bounty but, at we are all aware, a flashy image sometimes carries more weight.

I've always been fair with ALL my past bounty request.

Thanks, bud. I'm leaning toward the 49ers getting in, thus better to make a Bitcoin gold connection, if you know what I mean, especially since there's also gold in them Denver hills.

BITCOIN WILL BE SEEN AT SUPER BOWL XLVIII!!!

I just asked that question in the other thread, hoping that somebody will offer up an answer.

For all you techies out there, I'm now accepting Bitcoins at my online store http://store.richardsherman25.com/. I hear it's the currency of the future.


"Basically take his picture on the above site add a Bitcoin pic and thread and say I am the best and I accept Bitcoins"

Maybe if banners are a problem we can get some form of Bitcoin clothing in shot, that could be distributed throughout the stadium.

Donning Bitcoin related wearing apparel did come to mind, but selling (though you said distributed) anything on site may be outta the question.

Now, wearing a Richard Sherman shirt and holding up a sign that relates with Bitcoin incorporated directed toward the Broncos, could be an option.

Take a look at his store for inspiration: http://store.richardsherman25.com/

Very nice effort but somehow missing the mark. But, your post somehow inspired me to envision a sign depicting a fox, a seahawk, and a bronco (horse). Animal Bowl I even comes to mind, with a smaller QR-Code/Bitcoin logo incorporated.

Also, remember that a sign has two sides. We would be remiss if we kept the backside of the sign blank. Something to seriously think about.

My brother brought something to my attention about the matchup, hence seeking an image via Google.

How about...

I bought my Seahawk shirt off Overstock via

<insert QR-Code/Bitcoin logo here>

Tell them Richard Sherman sent you.

Can anybody do a mock-up of the above for $10 USD via BTC?

(the idea is that an actual Seahawks shirt purchased off Overstock is donned by sign holder)

Haha, I like the idea behind this design. Definitely need the Bitcoin logo in these designs that people are suggesting, unless there is a really innovative suggestion.

Very, very interesting, but the logo in orange, I believe. Wave it like a mothefucker each time Richard Sherman busts up a play.

For sake of argument, if several of these were in the stands, where would the QR-Code link to? Overstock.com Seahawk gear comes to mind. If such were the case, Overstock would most definitely allocate resources to perpetuate the airing. Granted, nobody involved in this endeavor would see a satoshi, but our reason for doing such is to bring further awareness to Bitcoin, coupled with seeing if we can pull off getting Bitcoin exposure during a Super Bowl game via guerrilla marketing. That'll be the ultimate play!
