As I promised you before, I got more information about the Burger King promotion. Here it is.
Enjoy and post what you’d like on TORN.
-Later versions of the riddle game will include a sweepstakes, with prizes including a trip to New York for the opening of the movie.
-Answers to the riddles will be printed on Point of Purchase materials at Burger King restaurants in the United States. These materials will be in stores beginning in November.
-There are twenty characters that will be in the restaurants in late November, as well as the Ring of Power. All the characters connect to the Ring.
-The sweepstakes and contest associated with phase two of the riddles game will also include black ball-caps and very nice black t-shirts as well, color printed on the front. We’ve gotten a couple samples to take pictures of, and I’m very impressed with the quality.
-The Goblets are pretty cool too. Kind of frosted, and heavy, with a lighted base. There will be four goblets for sale at Restaurants. Each has a character cast into it, and an elfin code that can be entered into a page on the site.

I go to an all-girls private school in L.A. and on Friday Oct. 19 I saw a poster on the door to the gym. It caught my eye because it featured the new LOTR poster (with the Argonath pillars). The poster advertised that students could nominate people in their school to be “LOTR athletes of the fall,” whatever that means. The poster also said that from this contest the school could win grants or the students could win trips. Pretty spiffy, and nice to see something LOTR related in school.
