MINI of Charleston travels to Columbia for the USC vs. Georgia Game

Rain, sleet or the threat of snow did not keep the MINI of Charleston Motorcade from departing the dealership on Saturday the 30th of January. Their destination – University of South Carolina Gamecocks against the Georgia Bulldogs at the Colonial Life Center in downtown Columbia.

The Motorcade consisted of 16 MINI customers and the entire MINI team. 2010 Convertibles, Clubman and Coopers lead the way down Interstate 26 with 21 customer cars in tow. What a site. The lead pack even had the MINI of Charleston graphics so the other traffic would know who we were.

Upon arrival, the MINI owners were directed to a MINI ONLY parking lot by the front entrance of the Center. All spectators had to walk past a display of a MINI Cooper, MINI Cooper Convertible and a MINI Cooper Clubman. Inside, spectators could enter to win a dinner at the local Liberty Tap Room. Those fans gave us names and email addresses that will be entered into the Making Waiting Fun event.

MINI owners all were seated together during the game as they watched the Gamecocks thrill the fans with a one point victory over the Bulldogs. During halftime, the MINI team and one lucky Russ Thames was escorted center court for the MINI of Charleston game ball presentation. Russ won our Brain Puzzle contest earlier in the week. Thanks you MINI University for the brain puzzles. All throughout the game the MINI of Charleston logo was displayed on the center jumbo scoreboard before and during time outs and halftime

As the Gamecocks celebrated and fans left the Center, MINI gum packs were handed out by the USC Gamecock Dance team as a parting token.

MINI of Charleston invited all sold MINI owners and had an overwhelming response. MINI of Charleston was also featured in all Gamecock games prior to this event as well as all Coach Horn shows throughout the state of South Carolina in the month of January.
