Raleigh, N.C. - Joseph Johnson of Apex, NC is getting married in a couple of months and really needed some electronics to fill in his new home. Instead of going to his local electronics store and spending a small fortune on the things he needed, he chose to enter the Time Warner Cable "Throw For Three" contest on GoPack.com. Joseph was chosen from over 1,500 entries accumulated in the week prior to the Eastern Kentucky game. As if being picked from that many entries wasn't enough of an accomplishment, he then had to go on the field in front of a jam-packed Carter-Finley Stadium crowd delirious because of the Wolfpack sprinting out to a 31-0 lead at the end of the first quarter. He then had to throw footballs through a tiny hole from 15 feet away and complete more of his passes in 25 seconds than another fan who was also chosen to compete.
Joseph pulled it out with a thrilling 10-9 victory and received a huge hand from the NC State faithful, who were clad in the 20,000 free NC State cowboy hats provided by Time Warner Cable. He then received his big prize - a high-definition TV, laptop computer and a cordless home phone from Time Warner Cable. Joseph will now be able to see high-definition programming on Time Warner Cable, surf the internet in lightning speed with Road Runner high-speed online and make unlimited local and long distance calls with Digital Phone service.
"We have season tickets to (NC State) football and basketball and try to sign up for all of the GoPack.com contests. We never thought we would win something like this," Joseph admitted. "The timing for this is perfect with us getting married. This will be great in our new home."
