WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - With only 13 days remaining until the Wake Forest football team's season opener, the "Countdown to Kickoff" series continues with a look at ordering custom video board messages at BB&T Field.

Video board messages are an excellent way to celebrate a special occasion at a Wake Forest football game. Messages are ideal for birthdays, anniversaries or special occasions. Up to 15 fan messages can run per game, and messages are presented on the video board following the band's halftime performance.

All birthday, anniversary and special occasion messages are $100 each. All messages are limited to 100 characters due to video board size restrictions.

Fans may place their video board request by phone or mail. Message requests may be made by phone by calling Wake Forest Sports Marketing at 336-758-5011.

Fans can also mail their requests and check (made payable to Wake Forest Athletics) to:

Wake Forest Sports Marketing Department Attn: Video Board Messages 499 Deacon Blvd. Winston-Salem, NC 27105

All requests must be received at least five business days in advance of the desired game. Messages will be displayed on a first-come, first-serve basis and only after payment is received. A 5x7 photo of the fan's message will be sent within 3-4 weeks after appearing during the selected game.

For more information on video board messages, contact Wake Forest Sports Marketing at 336-758-5011.

Wake Forest opens the 2010 football season on Thursday, September 2 vs. Presbyterian at 6:30 p.m. To purchase tickets, click here or call 336-758-DEAC (3322).
