With the phrase "The number 9 has always been important in Mengão's Brazilian titles: Nunes twice, Bebeto four times, and Gaúcho five times. To win six titles, we need a nine," Rio de Janeiro fan Luiz Henrique Moreira Sayão is the big winner of the "Adriano's Shirt" contest. The exceptional result was announced on the morning of July 2.
In the cultural contest, applicants had to submit a sentence of up to 140 characters, answering the following question: "What should Adriano's jersey number be: 9 or 10?" Submissions can be made using the form available on the website. According to FlaMarketing's judgment, the author of the sentence was successful in recalling other key number 9s in Flamengo's history and the importance of a star player in achieving a new conquest.
Most participants chose number nine as the number the Emperor should wear. Out of 33.945 messages received between June 18th and 26th (up to 18 p.m.), the number 9 jersey received 20.346 messages, while the number 10 jersey received only 13.599. Anyone over 18 could participate through the website http://mkt.flamengo.com.br/camisadoadriano/. Now, the ball is in the Emperor's court.
The initiative was carried out by Clube de Regatas do Flamengo, with support from Rádio Globo.
