It’s called “The 12 Days of Baseball” and it’s an annual social media event by the University of Houston’s Cougar baseball team. Beginning December 13th and running for 12 days, fans clicked into Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to participate and take a chance to win a prize.
Each day’s contest is different, from baseball trivia to local history quizzes. Contest winners are decided based on a random drawing of the participants who took part in the day’s respective contest.
Winners are split evenly between the 3 social media networks, so fans who followed the Cougars on all of them increased their chances of winning. Winners of the “The 12 Days of Baseball” receive prizes that included autographed baseballs, game tickets and the honor of throwing out the first pitch.
