Master Game Face winners recall once-in-a-lifetime experience watching Gilas
in Spain #MasterGameFace
October 3, 2014
Hailed as the most valuable fans in the 2014 FIBA World Cup, millions of
Filipinos from around the globe stormed social networking sites to show
their support for Gilas Pilipinas. They also came in throngs to Seville in
Spain to watch the national squad live as they competed in the world’s
biggest basketball event.
Master, the #1 Men’s Face Care brand that gives an oil and pimple free look
to all Filipino men with its Facial Wash and Face Cleanser ranges recently
concluded the Master Goes to Spain Promo. It was a special, one of a kind
promotion where 5 lucky Master Face Care users won a trip of a lifetime – an
all expense paid trip in Spain to watch the Gilas Pilipinas team compete in
the FIBA World Cup last September 2014.
Among those who personally cheered and closely followed the FIBA journey of
Gilas Pilipinas were Master Game Face Goes to Spain promo winners Jose
Clipper Besin, Michael Cleofe, Jeiel Guarino, Jerome Christopher Hernandez
and Andrew Paul Peñaranda who all won an 8-day all-expense paid trip to
Spain and a once-in-a-lifetime chance to watch the national men’s basketball
team as they put their game faces on against Croatia, Greece, Argentina,
Puerto Rico and Senegal.
Guarino, a communications officer, recalled how exciting the atmosphere was
at the games especially with die-hard Pinoy basketball fans swarming the
Palacio Municipal de Deportes de Sevilla. “Every Gilas basket, rebound,
dunk, defensive stop, hustle and even opponents’ errors and mistakes were
being cheered on regardless of the situation—whether we’re down big, tied or
up by a point. It was an amazing experience.”
For Besin, a civil engineer, one of the most memorable experiences of the
trip was personally watching how passionate Gilas Pilipinas was in winning
their Senegal game. “In the last few minutes of overtime, with the game on
the line and without Blatche inside, our team showed their real “puso”, not
giving up even in the face of great odds.”
The Master Game Face Goes to Spain promo winners also had an exclusive
meet-and-greet session with the country’s FIBA heroes. “It was a great
experience meeting Gilas Pilipinas players, most especially Marc Pingris. He
is a very nice person, cool and very accommodating. You will never see him
tired from the game,” said Cleofe, an office employee.
“Many of the Gilas players were gracious enough to mingle with fans and had
their photos taken. Despite a twisted ankle, Marc Pingris gamely posed for
pictures with fans and even shared a few light moments with everyone,”
Guarino added.
The five lucky Filipinos were all grateful to Master, the biggest male face
care brand in the Philippines, for sponsoring their trip to Spain, which
included a one-day tour of Madrid. “Thank you to Master Facial Wash for
giving us this once-in-a-lifetime chance to watch our Gilas Pilipinas team
play at the FIBA World Cup. I am definitely looking forward to more exciting
activities from Master,” said Cleofe.
