SUN Sports & Entertainment Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SUNR) announced
today that the MARINES have joined SUN as another Sponsor for the
highly anticipated MANO A MANO Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Event set
for July 12th 2009 at the Mesquite Resistol Arena.
In recognition of the MARINES involvement with the MANO A MANO
Event, SUN is offering 50% off ALL tickets to the men and women
service members in Uniform attending the Event. This includes:
Army, Navy, Air Force, MARINES, National Guard, Police,
Firefighters, and members of Homeland Security. SUN will honor,
recognize and support the active duty members of our Country with
this special 1st time promo.
Sgt. Mel Lopez, Marketing & Public Affairs, Marine Corps
Recruiting Station in Dallas, stated, "We are very excited to be a
part of this Event and know the thrill that MMA brings to our
troops around the world. We are also proud to be able to present
the Color Guard for the opening ceremony."
The MARINES will be promoting the Event at their Recruitment
Centers in the Dallas area as well as marketing several outreach
programs. The MARINES sponsorship also includes a block of free
promo tickets that will be distributed in select areas.
US Army 1st Lt Dane Harris in a letter to SUN stated, "This
weekend, my Unit will be training at our facility in Mesquite,
which is 5 minutes from the Arena. As you likely know, our fighting
style in the Army is based on Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, and I'd like to
bring my Soldiers to the event on Sunday."
In an exciting Press Conference held July 7th, 2009 at the
Mesquite Resistol Arena, invited Media, fighters and VIPs were
captivated with the new 100% Latino Program. The Media had a chance
to see a sneak preview video promotion of the upcoming event and
interview some of the fighters that were present as well as former
MMA Icon, Tra "Trauma" Telligman now coaching and training many new
and upcoming fighters. Members of Television, Radio and Print Media
performed one-on-one interviews as well as gathered footage for
