Contestants have the opportunity to participate by texting the letters CFBFAN to the SMART code 76278.

SMART pioneered and set standards for Mobile Entertainment worldwide. In addition, over the past four years, SMART has developed and managed hundreds of text message campaigns for top brands such as Visa, MasterCard and Coca-Cola along with Hollywood Blockbusters such as: "X-Men," "Kill Bill" and "The Matrix."

The service is very simple to use. Say for example, that in next issue of ESPN ESPN Entertainment and Sports Programming Network  Magazine there would be an ad from SNY Sports. Let us assume one million people entered the contest by sending in the text message CFBFAN to the number 76278. The promotion could then receive as many as one million messages. This would create a new gross revenue stream, using SMART Technology, for as much as one million dollars.
