Volvo recently brought together 16 digital influencers (each an alumni fan from a Big East School) for Big East Media Day. They’re all going back to their alma mater with a college buddy and a Volvo S60 for the weekend to relive their college days, attend a highly anticipated basketball game and share their entire experience using their social channels.
The finalists will blog, post on Facebook, and tweet about their weekend. Everything will be aggregated on a microsite, and readers can vote on who they think deserves the title of “Biggest Fan of the Big East.”
The grand prize is a trip back to NYC for the Big East championships, a donation to their university in their name from Volvo and a big surprise from Volvo.
