  • Sponsorship Deal?

    You are offered a sports sponsorship deal by a mysterious wizard. The wizard will give you $1,000,000 upfront to fund your 2017 season. All the wizard requires in return for the sponsorship is that:

    – When competing, you wear a branded shirt (which he will provide);
    – You maintain a specified level of social media activity with reasonable engagement stats and use the hashtag #wizard in all your posts;
    – You do NOT accept sponsorship or endorsements from Red Bull during the season; and
    – You win one national-level event during the 2017 season.

    If you fulfil the wizard’s terms, he will bless you with excellent digestive health. If you fail, you will be transformed into a tape-worm and forced to live for eternity inside Daniel Hannan.

    The wizard offers you the choice of which sport to compete in. Would you choose:

    Lawn bowls;
    Enduro mountainbiking;
    Ferret racing; or
    Warhammer 40,000?

    And why?

    (You cannot refuse the wizard’s offer, or he will post private photographs of you on Reddit.)

    Send us your reckons… 🙂

    I fear the OP has put rather too much thought into this. Or has imbibed a great many mind altering recreational substanses.

    I’d wear a bandana and bring some character to the sport. 😐

    Is this a bizarre way to get google to index “Red Bull” and “Tapeworm” together?

    I don’t think I could win a national level event at anything that has already been invented unfortunately, so I’d probably go for the ferret racing so it’s someone elses fault.

    Does the ferret have to be clean/drug free or can it accept mysterious parcels to aid in its performance?

    Lawn Bowls. Because I could combine it with my sponsorship deal for weak lemon drink.

    Ferret racing, I reckon I could use some of my million quid sponsorship to buy a really good ferret and still gave enough left over for a fun time. Also once the season is up I’d get to find out what ferret tastes like.

    Warhammer 40,000 for sure.
    I’ve won a national level event in the past, so would give me the best chance at fulfilling the last criteria.

    Biggest stumbling block may be social media, as the only thing I use that may qualify is Strava…..

    Are the sleeves long enough?

    warhammer 40000 ferret racing! (like death race 2000, but smaller, fluffier and with a rabbit munching addiction)

    besides which a 40K Tzeentch mutant ferret army would be ace (straight up leg of a space marines Armour to munch on his little emperor)

    Just to clarify if I choose ferret racing is it me or the ferret that has to wear a T-shirt and maintain a level of social media interaction?
