OVERVIEW

Execution

With 30 thousand spectators in the arena and more than a million people at home watching the game we decided to create a live action on the field that simulated the experience of surfing the web on a slow connection. Prior to the game we rehearsed with the players so that, upon a signal only they saw, they would freeze in a specific moment of the game, go back to playing normally and freeze again. After repeating this a couple of times a person would come out with a sign that read “Live it without the wait with Tricom’s High Bandwidth”.

Outcome

The Internet Service Provider experienced a 23% growth in new subscriptions. Some bloggers published the video in their blogs and it became a viral under the title “The Quisqueya Stadium freezes up”.It was also commented the next day in the newspapers, radio and TV sport shows.
