Hello ASUS,
My name is Kareem Issa and I am part of Gator Gaming, the University of Florida's videogames club. We hold a huge LAN, called GatorLAN, twice a semester and was wondering if ASUS would be interested in sponsoring our event on November 19th. GatorLAN is huge LAN tournament event at the University of Florida. We at Gator Gaming are extremely passionate about eSports and host 2 GatorLAN's per semester with a minimum attendance of 700 per LAN.

There will be tournaments in Starcraft 2, League of Legends, Halo 4, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Super Street Fighter 4, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Super Smash Brothers Brawl & Melee, NFL Madden, FIFA, Persona 4 Arena, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, DOTA 2, and Counter Strike:GO. All tournaments are free to enter and top finishers will receive prizes & trophies. The tournaments will follow the most recent competitive rule sets from MLG and EVO tournaments. The event runs from 3PM to 1AM and all tournaments are ran on the day of the event. PC and FPS tournaments are bring your own equipment. We provide the equipment for fighter games.

Sponsorship opportunities include but not limited to: Web banners, advertising on our website, flyers, booth space and banners at event (banners are extremely helpful and effective as we put it at our registration desk so every person entering the LAN will see it), mailing list announcement (over 1100 people on mailing list), posters/signs throughout campus (over 50,000 students at University of Florida), and local newspaper coverage. We can also name our events the "XXXXXXX Starcraft 2 tournament" or "Starcraft 2 by XXXXXXXXX" if XXXXXXXX wishes to sponsor a particular tournament. We will be giving shoutouts to all of our sponsors throughout the LAN via loudspeaker, and during the award ceremonies we will announce prizes donated by sponsors and tell the attendees to check out the sponsors. There will be streaming for many of our tournaments and in the streams, there will be overlays with the sponsors’ logo on a large projector.
