WHQG (102.9 The Hog)/Milwaukee Marks 'Total Eclipse Of The Hog' With $1,000 Giveaway, Violent Femmes

102.9 The Hog

SAGA COMMUNICATIONS Rock WHQG (102.9 THE HOG)/MILWAUKEE is marking the solar eclipse on AUGUST 21st with a $1,000 cash prize during its "Total Eclipse Of The HOG" promotion. The station plans to mark the moment with the "reverence, awe, and historic respect" it deserves by playing "Blister In The Sun," by MILWAUKEE's favorite sons, THE VIOLENT FEMMES -- and will continue playing it until MILWAUKEE reaches maximum darkness approximately 90 minutes later.

Listeners must keep track of how many times 102.9 THE HOG plays the song, then the first caller who gives the exact number wins $1.000.

Said Brand Manager JOE CALGARO, "I like the way this came together with the local band tie-in and the combination of on-air and online execution."

Listen to 102.9 THE HOG  when the solar eclipse begins at 11:53a (CT).
