AAdvantageGeek World Headquarters is located in Dallas, site of Game 1 of the NBA finals. Unfortunately, The Mavericks lost last night, and while the Miami Heat won by 8 points, the big winner in the championship is American Airlines which has naming rights to both the arena in Dallas and the arena in Miami. On a local 10 PM Dallas newscast last night, WFAA reporter Jason Whitely quoted an estimate of each broadcast of a game being worth about $10 million in equivalent advertising value to American.

Hoping to extend that advertising value, American is sponsoring a new promotion on Facebook:

American Airlines has home-court advantage throughout the series! We’ve called both Dallas and Miami home for decades, but we want to know who has the best fans. Play our basketball shootout game, and register for the chance to win one of the 10,000 AA.com discount codes good for travel to/from Dallas or Miami.

First prize is a 50 percent discount on a $200 or greater airfare to or from these cities to any destination in the lower 48 states between September 6, 2011 and November 14, 2011.   American is giving away 100 of these 50 percent discounts. Second prize is a 15 percent discount and they’re giving 9,900 of them. You have to go to American’s Facebook page to play and enter by June 16, 2011. The terms and conditions can also be found at www.facebook.com/aa.

Good luck!
