It started with an e-mail.
At first I thought it was just one of those random twitter things, but a few minutes later I got a message from the Sunday Night Football (@SNFonNBC) account about their interest in having me as a Fan of the Week.
The Fan of the Week is a new experience that the folks at NBC developed this year to help engage fans from the teams playing on Sunday night. I’m still not really sure of how I got asked to be one of the SNF Fans of the Week for this week’s game against the Bengals, but it’s incredibly exciting. As a Fan of the Week, I get to attend some exclusive NBC events, like a tailgate and some other things, as well as hang out on the SNF Bus as it makes various stops around the city.
Some of the stops will be open to the public, so you can come hang out with me and the other Fans of the Week and check out the SNF Bus (but really hang out with me). Here’s a brief overview of the times and places the Bus will be open to the public:
For each game, there are four “Fans of the Week” (two from each team). Follow us on Twitter:
– @thesteelersnat
– @PghGurl
– @WhoDeyAllOver
– @WhoDeyBaby
Finally, as part of the swag the Fans of the Week get, the folks from NBC asked me which player’s jersey I would like.
