Twitter Hunt v2.0 – Brice is 2 for 2!
Well, Tony Hawk has done it again. In his latest Twitter-based scavenger hunt, Hawk leads all 1.7 million of his Twitter followers on a worldwide hunt for prizes including complete skateboards, backpacks, t-shirts, watches and more. This time, however, several of the hidden packages included a USB drive containing video clues about the location of a free skateboard and BMX show happening on October 17th, 2009 (tomorrow) featuring Tony Hawk and several other professionals.
After 3.5 days of tracking the #THTH hash tag on TweetDeck, and a ridiculous amount of SMS updates from @tonyhawk, the Chicago clues finally came in. About 20 minutes later (including Loop lunch time traffic and a 2 block sprint), Brice met Stephanie and Zoe at the Katherine-Anne Confections tent at the farmer’s market in Daley plaza and received his prize.
Congratulations, Brice. Let’s make it 3 for 3 when the next time comes around!
(By the way, the caramels from Katherine-Anne were fabulous!)
