    First off who won the entire contest and is going to LA? Anyone on these boards?

    Second, what is the second place prize. I was one of the first 200, so I won one of these and would like to know what it is.

    Who else won a prize and do you know what it is?

    Nothing important to add, but I am in the 200 crowd as well and would like to know what I am getting.

    My thought (though doubtfull) is an authentic MLS match ball. If it is only for 200, than it may be possible.

    i think either a mls ball (shudoh or replica) or some t-shirt. it would be nice of them to give the 200 winners a pair of boots (japanese shudoh...for instance) ;)

    When are these idiots going to realize how pathetic it looks to ballyhoo a new item in a press release, and then be foolish enough to say it's available on your website, when in fact it is NOT yet available? If anyone has been able to find the ball on MLSgear, or PUMA.com, or anywhere else, please post the info here. THanks.

    An authentic ball would be really nice. (I had three: lost one at an indoor game, and the other two got holes)

    However, if its a t-shirt, I would hope it is not a "one-size-fits-all". I would also hope that the t-shirt looks better than any of the t-shirts at MLSgear.com.

    Congrats to everyone. Here's hoping we get our prizes before the All Star Break.

    i think its made for HG. i don't know about japan, but i'm guessing they have a lot of "dirt fields" like korea. those extra studs are for traction.

    A simple yes or no will do fine.

    Time for a bump. It has now been a month and two days since I received the email notifying me of winning, and also since I sent the information they asked for.

    Anybody know anything?

    I'm in the 200 and have received nothing. I sent in all the stuff they asked for. Does anyone have a link towards their webmaster, so I can ask them?

    I went to www.puma.com a few times and emailed them to ask what was going on and I have never received a reply.

    I just got an email from puma. The 200 second prize winners get an authentic MLS match ball. It has been delayed because of more sales than expected, so they haven't had any in stock.

    We should be getting the ball in the mail sometime in August.

    Since it has taken so long, they are sending us some special edition t-shirt, that we should get in the next 3 weeks.

    My best friend won, too, and he said he was going to give the prize to me if it was, indeed, an official match ball.

    Not a peep so far.

    Well, I just got the email today, so don't hunt him down just yet.

    I was really beginning to think we weren't going to get anything.

    Cool. I'm going to be seeing him tomorrow when we go to Gillette, so I'll find out if he's heard anything.

    Got the email today telling me I get a t-shirt and the official ball. Does anyone know what the t-shirt will look like, and also size?
