Now, the next Slingers home match on 13-Feb-2008 will be the season’s final match, where the $1 million shot will be held. (You can get your tickets here.) If you are wondering what is this million dollar shot, let me give you as short overview. Singapore Slingers has holding a contest, named million dollar shot, in which a contestant will be chosen for every single Slinger’s home game, to have a chance to win (a) Fully catered corporate boxes for 08/09 season, (b) 32″ LG LCD television (c) 500 dolars cash. For the final Slingers home match, which is on 13-Feb-2008, the lucky contestant will have a chance to win a million dollars.

So, what do you have to do, in order to enter as a contestant? You will simply have to answer a question that is given out at each Slingers home game. But, if you have not been to the game, let me reveal some of the secret questions to you. (I cannot tell you all the secret questions, since it will not be fair to those who went for all the matches )

So, the questions are as follows. The website to enter for the contest is here. (Do remember to give me a treat if you win. )

Slingers and Air Asia! Go go Slingers! Go go Air Asia! Yes! This post is about the 30th Jan 2008 Singapore Slinger vs South Dragons basket ball match, where Air Asia sponsored 1,000 free basket ball tickets for the game, and gave out numerous free air tickets to Kuala Lumpur, Phuket and Gold Coast. Thank you Nicholas for the ticket.

Thanks to Nicholas, I was invited to the Slinger vs Taipan match on 20 Jan 2008. The corporate sponsor was Harvey Norman. I was treated to the attractive Slinger girls dancing to the tune of the little known “secret” catch Harvey Norman song. “Go Harvey, Go Harvey, Go, Go, Go”. Here is a short clip for you to enjoy the “secret”.

Here, we have the Slingers girls dancing to a more usual song.

AirAsia is celebrating its launch of the Singapore – Kuala Lumpur route, by giving out 1,000 FREE tickets to the Singapore Slingers vs South Dragons (30th Jan 6pm) basketball match at indoor stadium! Click here to know the details.

Thanks, courtesy of Nicholas, I was invited to the Slingers vs Hawks match on 13 Jan 2008. As, the corporate sponsor of the day was AIA, I was feeling a little apprehensive on whether I will be mobbed by agents asking me to buy their products. But, it turned out to be a surprisingly encounter-free evening. Not a single agent talked to me. Not that I am complaining. ;p

Yes. Back to the game. Slingers vs Wollongong Hawks. It was…. a VICTORY! Slinger won the game with 113-102! Here is a clip of one of Rod Grizzard shot. He was the second-higest scorer and rebounder for Slingers in this match, netting 23 points on 10-of-15 shooting and 10 defensive boards.

As, the match was so exciting, I nearly missed the million dollar question that was flashed on the score board screen. It is … (roll drum) … “What is Rod Grizzard’s Number?”

Yes. What is the Slingers basket ball match without the Slingers girls? Here is a sneak preview of the Slingers girls!

Oh my god! Is that someone on the floor? Yes! A guy is on the floor! Is he going to be crush? Oh thanks goodness, he is alright. He sat up. Was he saying, “What the …?” as he gesture with his arms? Where is your teammates? Ops, the game goes on. Help yourself up, chap.
