Content Features: The Water Cooler on Gameops.com
“It isn't enough for a promotion to be entertaining or even amusing; it must create conversation. When the fan goes home and talks about what he has seen, he is getting an additional kick out of being able to say he was there. Do not deny him the simple pleasure, especially since he is giving you the invaluable word-of-mouth advertising to add to the newspaper reports.”
- Bill Veeck (Hustler's Handbook)
Water Cooler Moments are those that create conversation. Mascot skit, theme night, giveaway or wacky contest. We seek them out and serve them up on Gameops.com DAILY Monday through Friday.
