CTV begins Big Bang Yourself contest
By Adnews Staff
CTV has begun an online contest promotion called "Big Bang Yourself" in support of the television series The Big Bang Theory. Visitors to the website <http://ctv.ca/bigbangyourself> can enter the contest by creating a "Bangatar" using wardrobe elements, accessories and backgrounds from the show. Entrants will then receive points for persuading others to link to their personalized contest page. The entrant who has received the most points when the contest closes on Jan. 5 will receive a trip to Los Angeles to attend a taping of the show and meet the cast. The contest also includes random weekly draws for prizes such as DVD sets and t-shirts. "We know from the incredible turnout in Toronto to The Big Bang Theory: Live at ETalk event last month that fans of this series are truly committed," said Rick Lewchuk, senior vice-president of the CTV Creative Agency. "This opportunity is yet another way to bring our viewers closer to The Big Bang Theory experience."
