ATLANTA, Sept. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate the start of the 2014 season and the Atlanta Falcons home opening game against the New Orleans Saints, the Falcons have announced RISE UP FRIDAY presented by YP. RISE UP FRIDAY will kickoff on Friday, September 5 and continue each Friday throughout the 2014 season.
RISE UP FRIDAY will consist of the Falcons Fan Patrol making appearances in multiple locations across the Atlanta market looking for fans wearing Falcons gear, wearing red or showing Falcons spirit. Fans "caught in the act" could win game tickets, Falcons merchandise, and more.
"Teaming up with the Falcons is a great opportunity to celebrate and contribute to the passion and pride in our local community," said Alex Kaminsky, VP of Brand Advertising at YP, which is headquartered in Atlanta. "YP makes the fan experience even better by helping you prepare for the game – from quickly finding pre-game dining options to supplies for your tailgating party to the cheapest gas prices nearby. We're excited for the season to kickoff and encourage fans to Rise Up."
The Falcons want you to spread the RISE UP-idemic by encouraging everyone to wear red and their Falcons gear each week. Throughout the year, Falcons fans can win a visit from Freddie Falcon and Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders by showing how your business, school or classroom rises up every Friday. Fans can submit photos and videos of their business or school wearing Falcons gear or red at www.atlantafalcons.com/riseupfriday for a chance to win.
"RISE UP FRIDAY is another opportunity for our fans to get behind their team in a unique way," said Jim Smith, Atlanta Falcons Chief Marketing Officer. "We are excited to partner with YP in celebrating the start of the 2014 Falcons season and welcoming everyone Back to Football."
