Win A Free Main Event Entry: Friday On Fanduel

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Wed Apr 30, 2014 4:59 pm

The link for this week's contest to win a FREE NFBC Main Event entry in 2015 will be live tomorrow night. I've asked for one contest of 75 teams at $25 per team and one contest of 35 teams at $50 per team. The $50 contest would just have one prize: The Main Event entry. The $25 contest will again have a top prize of the Main Event entry and a second place prize of $100.

Look for more details tomorrow night and these will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Hopefully we can fill up both contests. Should be another fun night, so good luck all.

Greg,
If you allowed multiple entries, you could probably fill up a couple of these EVERY night! 8-)

Any idea on an estimate when these will be posted? Don't want to miss out like last week.

Thanks!

Greg,
Will this include the early game? STL and Cubs start time 1:20(cst).

Their could be a lot of lineup guessing Friday.

A couple questions about this:

1) Why do you call it "FREE" entry when it has been paid for by all of the entrants, including a portion by the winner?

2) Is there a way to stop receiving the NFBC newsletter? Don't mind the weekly leader updates, but could certainly do without contest promotion emails.

Correct, it's a paid entry. We stand corrected.

Email me at [email protected] and we'll take you or anyone else off the NFBC newsletter list.

I'm thinking it's good the early game wasn't included. How many of us would have taken Wainwright to beat the Cubs and been out of contention before the night games ever got started?

Chicago is pounding Waino today.

Here's the two links again. Just 1 spot left now in the $25 contest:

$25 - https://www.fanduel.com/e/Game/MLB_Sala ... fa12cc2ac5

$50 - https://www.fanduel.com/e/Game/MLB_Sala ... 6956b5a918

Still less than half the spots filled in the $50 contest. Let's prove this is a viable price point for NFBC members. Thanks all.

23 of 36 spots sold in the $50 contest with less than 45 minutes to go. Can we sell this one out? Good luck all for a 2015 NFBC Main Event entry.

Tough night for choosing a winning pitcher without screwing your budget...

...but I found a way!


C'mon folks, see if you can beat Deadheadz :mrgreen:

At one point I actually had Miguel Olivo and Curtis Granderson on the roster but I gave my head a shake and found another way to get it done.
