Dover, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/21/2015 -- Trade shows are the great incubators of innovation and ingenuity. Every must-see, must-have product purchased in stores by American consumers begins its journey at a closed-door industry-only event. The Sports Licensing and Tailgate Show is no exception. In fact, it was at the Las Vegas show earlier this year that The Big Pitch discovered the Quarterback Touchdown by Kid Agains during a pressure-packed five-minute presentation delivered to direct marketing guru and original Shark Tank "Shark" Kevin Harrington and his fellow panelists.
That pitch landed Quarterback Touchdown a slot on Episode 2 of The Big Pitch, which aired Saturday evening on the Fox Business Network to 80 million U.S. homes. Viewers who like Quarterback Touchdown as much as Harrington were able to purchase the product while the show was broadcast.
The segment featured excerpts from the pitch, with additional footage from The Sports Licensing and Tailgate Show and a demo by infomercial star Cory Bergeron.
The entire 30-minute program (as well as the individual Quarterback Touchdown segment) will now run continuously at thebigpitchtv.com.
"I'm always on the lookout for active and engaging sports products that appeal to different demographics," says Harrington. "Quarterback Touchdown is challenging for kids, teens, adults, tailgate parties—and it brings the family together. This is something every football fan should have set up for a little halftime competition. The potential of this product is awesome."
The Big Pitch is filmed at major trade shows in the U.S., where the coolest new products debut long before the public sees them. A mobile production unit sets up a multi-camera television studio on-site and pre-screens 100-plus applicants to identify a select group for a day of pitches. Quarterback Touchdown was one of five products picked as one of The Best of the Sports Licensing and Tailgate Show.
