Hotpotters Cheer for the Trail Blazers in VIP Style

Last week we held a little contest on our Portland Twitter channel, @HotpotPDX. We asked you guys 10 questions related to Hotpot and our Portland marketing campaign. The first person to @reply us with the correct answer would win two tickets to see the Portland Trail Blazers take on the Lakers from a fully catered suite at the Rose Garden. Pretty sweet if we do say so ourselves!

You guys floored us with your enthusiasm and the speed at which you responded. A few of the questions and answers:

• What team did the Trail Blazers play against the night Google gave away all those sweet red t-shirts at the Rose Garden? Answer: Orlando Magic.
• What are we calling the snazzy new technology built into all the shiny ‘Recommended on Google’ stickers popping up around town? Answer: NFC. 
• How many Best Ever medals does Powell’s City of Books have on their Place page? Answer: 121 (though that number has since gone up!). Side note: We’ve even teamed up with Powell’s this week: Show a cashier your Hotpot app for Android or iPhone, get a super cool Klean Kanteen — on Google!

A big thanks to our contest winners — Tyler, Scott, Joe, Erik, Lauren, Alex, Brian, Derek, Olivia and Rachel — and their guests for joining us at the big game!

And an extra special thank you to our friends at the Trail Blazers for having us.
