Marketing Idea of The Day

This is an ingenious idea! I worked in Brooklyn for a couple years and always wanted to go see this minor league baseball team play. I never made it there. This idea (video) may just be the stimulus I need to go this season.

*The Brooklyn Cyclones will change their name to the ''Baracklyn Cyclones'' for June 23 and give away Barack Obama bobbleheads to the first 2,500 fans in honor of the new president.

*The team will have an ''Economic Stimulus Package'' from Jan. 20 -- Inauguration Day -- until Jan. 23, selling tickets at $5-$10, matching the levels of its inaugural season in 2001.

*The first 1,000 fans get free Band-Aids as part of ''Universal Health Care.''

*All fans named Barack get in for free, fans named McCain or Palin get free bleacher seats (''a bipartisan consolation prize'') and any plumber named Joe gets two free tickets. ''One for himself, and one to 'spread the wealth' with a friend.''

*Fans will receive American flags when they leave, what the Cyclones called ''a clear-cut exit strategy.''
