Not sure how many of you know about Big Truck's FIGHT NIGHT gigs where two players bet it up and fight it out.

It seems to be catching on. This is their 4th such FIGHT NIGHT.

I have not heard of this yet Joey. It sounds interesting and I will check it out.
Maybe you and I can rumble for a few frog skins someday:cool:
 
Fight night's a good way of marketing it.
I think he should do some prematch interviews loaded with trash talking and some backstory like
"bob has been chasing timmy for some time ever since he beat him out of 2 grand at sharky's".
I could watch two unknowns battle if they give me some good backstory.
 
This is incredibly smart.

Let's run through this.

You want the backstory, and you already have the full names of the 2 players, the amount they currently are playing for, where they are doing that at, and when (let's not forget when). Now you want that to hear the amounts and places + players of all the other times they have played to fill a backstory for you. Are you on one of them new fangled multi jersydictionel tack forcas?

Sounds like you have enough for your probable cause officer Creedo. Don't worry, I don't think your cover is blown, especially if you come back with a rough retort.

Peace.

110% agree.

How many people here would be interested in watching a match between John Barton and Lou Figuroa if they didn't follow the "back story"? But now hundreds want to see it.

One of the reasons I like watching the well-known pros is because I feel like I know something about them. An SVB-DarrenA match-up is always going to interest me...not just because they're great players....but because I have a sense of their rivalry.

Every commercially successful sport does this; the NBA probably does it best: Jordan vs. Kobe, Wilt vs. Bill Russel and so on. It adds to the excitement. Manning vs. Manning!

Heck, I'd watch a match between two shortstops if I knew that there was money and PRIDE on the line. But don't make me assume that pride is on the line: give me the scoop!

(while we're on the subject, I'll plug a request for pro commentary: at some point in the match (earlier the better) tell us who the players have won/lost against in this tournament. Example: Ultimate 10-ball Finals. MikaI against some guy named Wang Can. Wang Who? Well, an 18-year old out of China who got here by beating Jayson Shaw 10-6, SVB 10-2, AlexP 10-4 and DarrenA 10-7. Okay! Now I'm interested! It's not his lifestory, but it's a heck of a backstory.)

Good Point! I agree!
