MetroPCS asks fans to vote for its next sponsored athlete

October 29, 2012 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

MetroPCS is asking its fans to choose its next sponsored fighters.  Frankie Edgar tweeted out the contest to his followers.

We’re looking for our newest teammate on @metropcs @ufc #TeamMetro. We want our fans todecide: is.gd/5S3UqN

— Frankie Edgar (@FrankieEdgar) October 29, 2012

Brian Stann, Anthony Pettis, Urijah Faber and Carlos Condit are the choices to join Jon Jones, Frankie Edgar and Cain Velasquez as Team Metro Fighters. The results will be revealed December 8th during the UFC on Fox 5 event on the network.

Payout Perspective:

No word on what impact the pending T-Mobile acquisition will have on Metro PCS but this promotion is a nice piece of activation for one of the UFC’s official sponsor.  The reveal takes place on the next network appearance for the UFC which will provide some good exposure for Metro PCS.  There are no real underdogs or favorites with the fighters competing for the sponsorship as all have major deals.

Trump is graded on such a big curve. I’ve never seen anything like it. Dude is incoherent, racist, has numerous visible health problems including being so old that he falls asleep on camera all the time, and started a war that has made everything worse for everyone. And yet.
