If you love the NBA, and you love Disney, then you’ll want to be in Orlando this weekend for sure! Already, events for Walt Disney World’s “ESPN: The Weekend” were promising to be extra special for sports fans. Now, we’re happy to announce that, in addition to forums, parades, Q&As, live telecasts and radio broadcasts, and a whole slew of sports and ESPN personalities, NBA fans will get an extra-special opportunity to experience their favorite sport up close and personal.
To promote ABC’s and ESPN’s NBA coverage, the company has created the NBA on ESPN RV. Fans get a chance to come on board, tour the RV, plus participate in free throw competitions, vertical jump challenges, and visit special souvenir photo stations. RV staff will also be giving away mini basketballs, t-shirts, and other cool gear to visitors during the day. Get a chance to play EA’s NBA Jam for PS3, or test your skills in the Hanes Comfort Zone 3-point contest. Winners of this challenge will be entered into a national pool, and one lucky grand prize winner will win a trip for 2 to Game One of the 2011 NBA Finals!
The NBA on ESPN RV will be stationed just outside of the Hollywood Studios’ Premier Theater this Friday, March 4, and Saturday, March 5. Fans can drop by to get in on the fun 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. on Friday and 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
