Paisley Panda is all set for Saturday’s match against Falkirk with his preparations all in place for the popular match day competition ‘Bung a Baw’ and he will also be launching a new competition called 'First Scorer'.
To take part in ‘Bung a Baw’ fans need to purchase a small foam ball which is numbered and they will then have a chance to throw their ball towards our club mascot Paisley Panda in front of the Family Stand. Each person will have 60 seconds to do this and the winner will be the person who has thrown the ball closest to the feet of the Panda with the winner being confirmed over the PA system.
The competition is sponsored by The Linwood Farm Restaurant who are supplying a family meal voucher as the prize for the contest winner.
Each ball will cost £1 to buy. The balls will be available from sellers inside the Family Stand in the 30 minutes leading up to kick-off and then again in the first 5 minutes of half time before the competition starts (subject to availability). Each ball is numbered and participants will also get a ticket with the corresponding number which they will use to claim the prize if they win.
Paisley Panda reports that ‘Bung a Baw’ continues to be very popular so he advises that you get in early tomorrow to purchase your ball to take part.
Paisley Panda has also teamed up with the St Mirren Club Shop so you will be able to buy hats and scarves for the game from the 'Bung a Baw' stands.
‘First Scorer’ gives fans the opportunity to predict in advance of the game who they think will score St Mirren's first goal in tomorrow’s match against Falkirk.
Two winners will be picked at random from those who guessed correctly and they will each win a family munchy box (4 slush puppies, 4 hot dogs, 4 ice creams and 6 packets of traditional sweets) from Tasty Treats of Bridge of Weir.
To enter all you have to do ahead of the game is post your prediction of the first St Mirren scorer on our Facebook or Twitter feeds using the hashtag #Saints1stgoal.
The lucky winners will be notified through the account they posted from confirming the instructions to collect their voucher from the Club Shop after the match.
