Blueshirt Banter Reminder: Winter Classic Jersey Contest
This is just a friendly reminder about our exclusive Blueshirt Banter contest. For those who you missed it, we are asking you, the readers to create your own New York Rangers Winter Classic jersey. We will collect all of our submissions and have the community vote to choose the best jerseys.
Submissions will be open until August 20th, 2011, until than everyone is free to submit their jersey to myself (Rangers05fan@aim.com) or Joe (Joe@blueshirtbanter.com). We will also be handing out a prize to the contest winner, which will be an official Blueshirt Banter T-shirt from our store. We hope to see a bunch of submissions in the coming weeks!
Big stick salute to all those who have already sent in their submissions.
An extended outline of the rules, voting and jersey templates will be available after the jump.
- Contest Rules:All submissions must be in by August 20th, 2011.
- All submissions will then be grouped into four groups. The winners from each group will be placed into playoff style voting to determine the winner.
