Unless you’re visiting the website for the first time you know I’m a big fan of eating. I love supporting local restaurants and I’ve been pushing you to vote for my friends Papa Roux and Rock Cola Cafe in the Super 46 Sandwich contest. It’s down to the Final and you can still vote FOR both and not against either of them. I can’t explain what this means to both of these local businesses any better than how Papa has said it himself:
Please VOTE NOW for both PAPA ROUX and ROCK-COLA CAFE!
ACTION REQUESTED:
=================================
NATIONAL SUPER BOWL MEDIA COVERAGE OPPORTUNITY FOR INDIANAPOLIS EAST SIDE. YOUR ASSISTANCE NEEDED!
WHAT:
======
As you may know, the Super Bowl 46 Committee selected a number of East Side restaurants in their “Super46: Best Sandwich In Indiana” promotion, which initially included 46 sandwiches across the entire state.
TWO EAST SIDE FINALISTS REMAIN IN THE TOP 4.
WHY:
====
The committee just announced that the TOP 2 finalists will be involved in a National Media Promotion with TV and other media coverage, in the Super Bowl Village downtown, in which visitors to Indianapolis will be encouraged to try the sandwiches and cast a deciding vote.
Suddenly, this is no longer about sandwiches or restaurants or competitions. It is an opportunity to promote Indianapolis’ East Side in a positive light in the national spotlight. It is a chance to breathe life into the East Side economy, and make a positive and lasting change, while making history at the same time.
TWO GREAT EAST SIDE establishments in the final 4. In ALL OF INDIANA, the EAST SIDE OF INDIANAPOLIS has quite possibly the TWO BEST SANDWICHES. Think about that for a second.
And then think about this: Every visitor to the Indianapolis East Side spends money here. If we can promote our East Side on National TV for one restaurant, people will come out here and spend money. They’ll buy gas here. They’ll find Irvington. They’ll find homespun and Jockamo and Lazy Daze and Tie Dye Grill and The Legend and DuFour’s and more.
And that’s if we only get one restaurant in the finals. Imagine if we get two.
Our challenge becomes clear: secure spots for both Papa Roux and Rock-Cola in the Final 2 Bracket.
Imagine what it means to our East Side economy. These establishments alone EMPLOY OVER THIRTY EAST SIDERS, many from local schools such as SMHS and WCHS. This is their payroll. This is our economy, and it trickles to our property values, quality of life, quality of public service, schools, and more.
HOW:
====
Even if you have no interest in the sandwiches, restaurants, or competition, please take a moment to vote for East Side Pride.Of course, it doesn’t hurt that the sandwiches and restaurants are in fact great additions to our East Side, and are deserving of your support.
Please share this everywhere you can. Get this into the hands of every east side establishment, all of your friends, all of your relatives, and even a few complete strangers. Time is of the essence.
WHEN:
====
It is CRITICAL that we vote IMMEDIATELY. Voting ends early Friday morning, so please VOTE NOW. Do not wait for Friday morning.
