Topps Gives 10 Lucky Couples The Chance to Win a Diamond Engagement Ring on Valentine's Day

NEW YORK, Jan. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Valentine's Day will be more memorable this year for one lucky couple.  Today The Topps Company, the leading creator and marketer of sports cards and the official baseball card company of Major League Baseball®, announced that the company will celebrate its 60th diamond anniversary on Valentine's Day, February 14th, by giving ten lucky couples the opportunity to search for one diamond engagement ring.  

From January 18 through February 3 fans will have the chance to go to http://www.facebook.com/ToppsSports and upload a 90 second video telling their story and showing the world why they should be one of the 10 finalists to search for the diamond.

The Topps Valentine's Day Diamond Dig will be held at New York City's Grand Central Terminal where a diamond engagement ring, worth approximately $10,000, will be buried underneath a 30 foot diamond ball pit. At the same time, the bachelors, dressed in tuxedos, will dive into the pit in effort to be the first to find the engagement ring.  The lucky bachelor who finds the ring will propose on the spot to their significant other, also dressed in evening attire, in front of the world on the most romantic day of the year.
