Fantasy grand prize gets even better!
Celebrate with the stars!It happened by accident once , but now NIKEiD Euroleague Basketball Fantasy Challenge features an extra prize that is impossible to match: the chance to be on court for the Euroleague title celebration. That's right, Euroleague fans, this season's NIKEiD Fantasy Challenge grand prize winner not only will enjoy the 2009 Final Four at the state-of-the-art O2 World in Berlin as a VIP guest of Euroleague Basketball. Now, he or she also will be allowed on court to celebrate with the new champions! A previous Fantasy Challenge winner already had the chance to do it at the 2007 Final Four in Athens, as Jorge Martinez stepped on court to live one of the greatest experiences of his entire life.

"Everything was under control, as the organization and the Greek police did their job really well," Jorge recalled after the final. "We managed to celebrate with the entire Panathinaikos team and I could see my face on some Greek newspapers and posters the day after the final. There was a poster in one newspaper in particular that I was celebrating right there with Dimitris Diamantidis," the Final Four MVP.

Jorge wore the jersey of his favorite team, Pamesa Valencia, which called the attention of two former Pamesa players on Panathinaikos, Dejan Tomasevic and Dimos Dikoudis. "The best part was the post-final celebration, seeing all Panathinaikos players lifting the trophy," Jorge said. "I had to chance to congratulate Tomasevic, who treated me really, really well. We couldn't ask for more. We had a great time. It was very intense."

What was a spontaneous occurance for Jorge is now a guaranteed one for the NIKEiD Fantasy Challenge winner who makes it to Berlin.

Imagine celebrating the Euroleague title on-court with your favorite team next spring in Berlin!
