Make the Next Great Mentos Video

I knew that Mentos was unofficially delighted about the geyser videos circulating on the internet (with over 5 million hits) as well as the appearance of it on CBS’ NUMB3RS series and later The Late Show with David Letterman.

imageLittle did I realize that they’re looking to give it a little push to continue.

Mentos is running a promotion on a separate website called MentosGeysers.com where they list all the stuff you can win for submitting the next great Mentos Fountain movie.

First prize is 1000 iTunes downloads and a year’s supply of Mentos (which they say is 320 rolls ... no word on whether or not Pink Grapefruit is among the choices).

Even if you just enter you get a cap, tee and towel!

Here are the full entry rules (hosted by youtube.com)

More on the story here.

Deadline is 9/30/2006

  1. I like it that they’re smart enough to enjoy and encourage the attention.  A lot of companies would freak out over something like this but they’re smart enough to know free publicity when they see it.

    Also, Mythbusters is doing the Mentos & Diet Coke thing on Wednesday.  Should be cool.
