    How far will a sports franchise go to get its market's attention?

    Model Kelly Newton urges Orlando to get behind their team!

    The AFL's Orlando Predators plan to unveil a billboard this month to launch their '05 season-ticket campaign. While Predators Managing Partner Brett Bouchy would not give the exact details, he did say that it "involves Kelly Newton, a model who was in last year's campaign, and another woman." :eek:

    The '03 billboard, which featured Newton in a three-point stance and the words 'get behind your team,' was ordered removed by the league.

    In '00, a Predators billboard featured a close-up photo of a woman's breasts with the words "fake left, fake right."

    (ORLANDO SENTINEL, 4/9).

    Kelly Newton AND another woman????

    Not a biggie to me, but Gary Barnett would have a problem with it. But of course, he's a prude.

    i don't think the XFL went extreme enough... they should have made it like the cheerleaders in BASEketball... you know what i'm saying?

    Orlando tried to have a promotion where you bring a blow-up doll to one of their games and receive free beer. The league office said no way and fined them $10,000. Who the hell would do that anyway? :confused:

    Am I the only one that can't tell what the hell is going on in that picture of the billboard? Someone took a ****ty snapshot...it's way too dark for me to see the details.
