A whirlwind of media attention has surrounded online casino GoldenPalace.com for years due to their innovative and sometimes outrageous marketing campaigns, but their latest eBay purchase will literally put them in the eye of the storm. The Antiguan-based online casino and poker room paid $10,000 to advertise on a Hummer H3 Storm Chase Vehicle belonging to The Multi-community Environmental Storm Observatory (M.E.S.O.), a professional environmental studies team. ?The $10,000.00 donation to M.E.S.O. will fund their research trip to the plains during the weeks of May 5th through May 21st. Also a large portion of the money will go to disaster relief for tornado and storm victims in the form of checks written to people at disaster scenes, as M.E.S.O. has done on past chases,? according to Allan Detrich, the treasurer and Media Director of M.E.S.O. ?M.E.S.O. is grateful to GoldenPalace.com for their generous donation to our research group.? says Detrich. ?Donations are hard to come by in this day and age, but with the recent increase in severe storm activity in the United States, M.E.S.O., with the support of GoldenPalace.com, will be able to reach out to some of the victims of those horrible storms.? The Spring storm season traditionally brings severe weather across the United States, concentrated in what is known as ?Tornado Alley?, an area that includes Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. ?This is a wonderful advertising opportunity as well as a great way to help the victims of these terrible storms,? said GoldenPalace.com CEO Richard Rowe. ?We commend M.E.S.O and their Storm Chasers for their courageous and generous efforts to gather information about the storms and help the people whose lives have been devastated by them.? Setting the standard in marketing creativity, GoldenPalace.com has devised some of the most exciting and outrageous advertising campaigns in the past few years. Items such as the Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Britney Spears? Pregnancy Test, and William Shatner?s Kidney Stone have garnered extensive worldwide media attention for the casino. GoldenPalace.com has also used their items and marketing reach to raise awareness and over $1,000,000 for various charities worldwide. « Back to Auctions Events Main Page Comments on this event On April 03rd, 2006 at 4:36 PM goldengirl1985 said: I do believe this is a great investment for GPC and the one who won.... this awesome to help other get out in time and be safe from natural distaters etc...

I know the people of MESO will put the money from GPC to good use and gather some very valuable data on storms, and help people hit by these storms .

MESO is such a worthy organization and service with which to be associated. Thank you again, and keep safe to those of you on MESO. On May 16th, 2006 at 12:17 AM Mrs. Joann Greene said: My husband and I hit a really terrible storm while we were traveling through Oklahoma. The hail seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and we were forced to pull off the road and try to find some protection. Imagine our surprise when a truck pulled up to us and a man and a lady from a group named MESO got out IN THE HAIL and gave us directions out of the storm and the hail. Looking up the group on the Internet when we got home, I discovered that you were a sponsor of this group of storm chasers. Thank you for your contribution to this wonderful group of people, who we will always think of as our knights in shining armor. If they hadn't been there, we might not be around to talk about it. They are doing you proud. On May 16th, 2006 at 8:48 PM Will Anderson said: What a cool marketing idea, saw this awesome truck roll through Wichita, KS, and being from this town, any attention brought to the severe storms that roll through our area is a blessing in disguise. I am sure this will pay off for you in the long run, you need to do this each year for continued awareness, we appreciate it.

What a terrific group of people... definitely knew what they were doing, and left a positive impression on me. Golden Palace should be honored to sponsor this organization and the work they do. They go out of their way to help and/or educate people when it comes to severe weather. Keep up the great work everyone!! On May 23rd, 2006 at 5:36 PM Kansas StormSpotter said: This group MESO single handedly was responsible for alerting the city of Garden City, Kansas of an impending severe storm that included a rain wrapped tornado, they called 911 and the town sounded the sirens alerting the community. The storm proceeded to dump nearly 4 inches of hail on Garden City. This group is doing your organization proud. I was out spotting when they made the call before me on this storm. On May 24th, 2006 at 9:55 PM William Courtney said: This is a really cool idea. I can only say that I am impressed that you are sponsoring a group that is truly doing a public service.

On August 08th, 2006 at 1:52 PM Budyyl said: Hey, Funny thing is I have heard of some of the \"stunt\" advertisement you have done in the past but I never knew about who was doing it. Now this is something posotive and worth regognizing. I work (day job) with one of the MESO memebers and think what they do is great. A little crazy, but great. Awsome that you put your money behind something along these lines, keep it up. Add a comment |
