Indiana Man Wins Week Two IWantMyManCave.com Contest Prize
TIMONIUM, Md., Oct 20, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Bill
Me Later, Inc. has announced Ryan Akers from New Castle, Ind., is
the second weekly winner of the IWantMyManCave.com
contest sponsored by Bill Me Later(R). Ryan
faced stiff competition, with thousands of entries received in the
second week of the contest. He is also eligible to win the grand prize -
a Man Cave makeover valued at up to $15,000. As a weekly winner, he
receives prizes from Fathead.
"Ryan's plea to
provide him with 'thrills
instead of female frills' was heard loud
and clear," said Chris Williams, vice
president of marketing for Bill Me Later, Inc. "The
first two weeks of the IWantMyManCave.com
contest has uncovered a nationwide epidemic of 19 inch TVs, lace-covered
drapes and sweet-smelling candles. Over the next month, it's
Bill Me Later's mission to help these
contestants reach their Man Cave potential."
What is a Man Cave?
A Man Cave is a room that includes male-centric style and is used for
watching sports, shooting pool, and being with the guys. It is
frequently where the cave dweller displays items considered undesirable
for display elsewhere in the home by their significant other. The 2008
Man Cave Survey of 1,000 consumers found there are 11 million Man Caves
in America and 24 percent of Man Cave dwellers spend more than 20 hours
a week in their Cave.
Bill Me Later's retail partners have
everything needed to build a man's paradise
in his home, and the grand prize winner will fill their Man Cave with up
to $15,000 of merchandise from merchants, including Dick's
Sporting Goods, Newegg,
Fathead,
Sports
Authority, FogDog,
Lenovo,
Blendtec
and TigerDirect.
