NTN Buzztime Interactive Television Network Welcomes Dodge as
Sponsor of QB1(TM), Predict-The-Play(R) Football and Interactive
Advergaming Programs for Sixth Consecutive Year CARLSBAD, Calif.
and AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Oct. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- NTN Buzztime,
Inc., (AMEX:NTN) a leading developer of interactive television and
entertainment and the distributor of Play Along TV(R) entertainment
and technology, and Dodge, a division of DaimlerChrysler AG
(NYSE:DCX), announced today that Dodge will be sponsoring NTN
Buzztime's QB1 football strategy game for the sixth consecutive
year, culminating in a vehicle giveaway of Dodge's first mid-size
SUV: The All-New 2007 Dodge Nitro. NTN Buzztime has produced QB1
for the Buzztime Network -- their multiplayer iTV network in sports
bars and restaurants -- with a license from the NFL continuously
since 1984. The football strategy game is produced live from
Buzztime's iTV Production Center in Carlsbad, California and is
played in conjunction with nationally televised NFL and college
football broadcasts. Players compete nationally to predict each
offensive play before the snap of the ball and can earn points and
prizes. Dodge has been the exclusive automotive sponsor of QB1 for
the past five years. This year, QB1 features Dodge "Battle To The
Bowl VI," a trivia game played during halftimes of select QB1 games
all season long. Players qualify to take part in the "Final Bowl,"
played 30 minutes prior to the Super Bowl on February 4, 2007, to
determine who will win an All-New 2007 Dodge Nitro. "Dodge's
mission is to connect with consumers through activities they are
passionate about," commented Mark Spencer, Director of Dodge
Communications. "NTN Buzztime has consistently delivered
interactive programs that engage our target consumers in the midst
of what they love doing at the grass-roots level. This long-term
commitment will allow us even more creative avenues to engage the
consumer through fun, memorable product experiences." The
sponsorship also includes the Dodge "Rush of Your Life" animated
custom advergame. In this interactive experience, players use their
NTN Buzztime Playmakers to race a Dodge Nitro through a
state-of-the-art 3-D animated city landscape, guessing the Nitro's
next destination (using the MyGIG(TM) Multimedia Infotainment
System which includes GPS navigation) and specific cargo items the
vehicle will carry -- demonstrating the class-exclusive
cargo/interior flexibility of the vehicle. Dodge will also sponsor
"Football Challenge," an all-season-long prediction game where
players will "pick the winner" of all 256 NFL games, with the "best
predictor" winning a Dodge Fun Pack and HDTV grand prize. "We are
very pleased to be working with Dodge again," said Dario Santana,
Chief Executive Officer of NTN Buzztime. "The long affiliation
between Dodge and NTN Buzztime has been beneficial to both
companies and has brought great enjoyment and entertainment value
to our shared customers. We expect this year's Dodge campaign to be
the most exciting one yet." About NTN Buzztime, Inc. Based in
