NFFC To Host Live Drafts At Fantasy Football Fest

[King of Queens]

It's cool Greg. I just like to bust ballz.

This event seems to have everything covered. I'm considering coming to draft, and at the same time, I may wear my Boba Fet costume or my Wolverine costume. Hmmmm. This is interesting. Lol

DIESEL, BillyWaz and Tom having fun in Atlantic City this August:

Finally, a chance to bust out my Storm Trooper outfit.

We are going to offer drafts every hour during the two days of Fantasy Football Fest at the Atlantic City Convention Center. Our goal is to give everyone who attends the show a chance to plan their day around available drafts, while also offering everything from $125 satellite leagues to $150 Draft Champions National Championship leagues to $1,000 satellite leagues.

We are currently taking signups on our site and will provide a link to FantasyFootballFest.com with a landing page that shows all of the prize grids, Rules and Schedule of Events. Look for that shortly. We'll take signups in advance and at the show as we do our best to fill as many leagues as possible. Should be wild...AND FUN!! Introducing these live drafts to new potential customers is the key and hopefully it will lead to new customers in many of our contests.

Greg,

Just an FYI, this morning the ad/link on the NFFC home page for this event listed April instead of August as a date. Might make folks think it already happened.

Thanks Scott. We're updated that button now to say August.

Yeah, we'll create a special thread just for the Fantasy Football Fest signups. I believe they just added the Registration page to their site yesterday. We'll update these once they start coming in and post on a separate thread. Thanks.

Hey guys...It's been over a week since anything was posted on this. You guys always run a fantastic contest, but you also always drive me nuts because you wait too long to announce things. Are there any signups for any of these drafts yet? Will there be a link for people to see? Somebody just signing on to these boards for the first time this season wouldn't even know about these live drafts because it's so far down the list on the message boards.

Sorry we haven't updated this thread Marc but there hasn't been anything new to add since Greg posted the link a few posts above. We have included info about the event in our newsletters and we do have a landing page on the NFFC site for this event. Registration has been live for awhile now so people can sign up. You can find the info at the link below:
