God Bless The Silly People™

Live 95.5 in Portland rebranded for Halloween:

Your next opp, for the US stations, is in a few weeks.

Speaking Of Thanksgiving

Possibly the best fake Thanksgiving parade in recent years was at V-103 in Atlanta. It’s essentially a huge spectacular Thanksgiving Day parade….that is totally pre-produced. Crowd noise. Musical guests K-Hits in Sacramento had Billy Joel playing live on a float. On a street that doesn’t exist. Why? Why not.

The A To Z Game

For most of you, this is new. New is Good.

High/Low gives you prompts following guesses that people follow to ID a specific number. Like, the number of Red Hot candies in a jar to win a trip around Cinco de Mayo (NOW in SFO) or just a dollar amount, like $1871.34 as done by K-Hits in Tulsa.

This game from Mix 94.9 in Cincinnati has you IDing the Mix Mystery Artist based on prompts that lead you towards letter. Win CASH with The Mix 94.9 A to Z Game! – Mix 94.9 (949cincinnati.com)

#FailedElfNames

One of the stations has TSO tickets and a syndicated morning show so they’re probably going to be stuck with Text-To-Win. Everything between Thanksgiving and December 25th really needs to be examined to see if you can spin some sense of the holiday out of it. If you’re going to do texts, one could play off the Twitter trends of which there are at least three versions of “fail” every day. Text a Failed Elf Name to 86609 and win Jingle Bash Ball Fest Palooza tickets. “This hours #FEN is ‘Weird Doug From IT’.”
