Are you ready for some football? The Jacksonville Jaguars of the NFL contacted me because they were looking for a unique way to reveal their new logo and helmet at their annual sponsor’s dinner and golf outing. The event took place at a really nice PGA golf course at the TPC Sawgrass Clubhouse in Ponte Vedra, FL.
It actually started to rain before the golf portion was done, so the golfers ended up taking shelter in the clubhouse early. I went on about an hour before the scheduled time and I performed a speed painting of the new helmet which I painted upside down. The crowd went crazy when I spun it around for the big reveal, so everyone was pretty pumped when they ended up raffling the painting soon after. As a speed painter, it is my job to come up with a great way to create the big reveal. This being done upside down definitely did the trick.
The team also ordered canvas prints of the painting before the event to give to the winners of the golf tournament. The winners seemed excited to receive such a unique prize. Ordering prints and posters is an add on I like to offer organizations who are looking for one of a kind employee incentives or donor gifts, in addition to receiving fun corporate entertainment.
Several member of the Jaguars attended the golf outing and a few of the team’s cheerleaders made an appearance at the sponsor’s dinner as well. Turned out to be a great event, despite the rain.
