Marlins’ “Reasons” videos down to final two
Entries in the Marlins’ “What’s Your Reason?” video contest that challenged fans to come up with unique uses for rival teams’ jerseys have been narrowed to two.
The public has until July 29 to vote for its favorite. The choice is between using a New York Mets jersey as a birthday party pinata and a Washington Nationals jersey to help clean up a barbecue. Watch and vote for the videos here.
The winner will be determined by a combination of fan votes and a panel of team judges. The winning video will be shown on the video board at the Marlins-Chicago Cubs game at Land Shark Stadium on Aug. 1. And the winner will receive a prize package that includes a night at a Marlins game in a suite for up to 10 people and a Marlins jersey for the video creator.
