Wazzup Pilipinas!
Rafael Halili literally kicked his way to Barcelona with Beko Philippines' promo designed to thank their Facebook followers with the launch of their new Facebook fan page!
Followers of their Facebook social media page were able to join the Kick Your Way to Barcelona grand kick-off challenge which initiated with a qualifying round a few weeks ago where official and wild card finalists emerged to compete for the final round of which Rafael emerge as the victorious participant to get to travel to Barcelona, Spain for an all-expense-paid tour and to watch the FC Barcelona game in person.
The lucky Rafael was able to shoot 8 balls into the circular hole shaped as a washing machine window. There was another person who got 8 balls in but 2 of his shots were disqualified for going beyond the allowed distance allocated for the ball position.
Rafael was with his girlfriend during the final rounds and thus we witnessed the joy of both individuals. We even jokingly asked if Rafael will be bringing her girlfriend along to Barcelona. But who knows, maybe he will since this is a rare opportunity to get the chance to visit a great country.
The winners for the grand Witness the Victory 2.0 were also raffled off to reveal two persons who will be joining Rafael in Barcelona. The difference is the winners of the raffle get to bring along a plus one each. So this means 5 Filipinos will be going to Barcelona soon.
The Witness the Victory 2.0 is the second run of raffle for the buyers of Beko appliances.

Beko Philippines also held a media challenge where yours truly won for getting 3 shots in. I knew I would be better off joining the competition if I was wearing my usual maong jeans, polo shirt and with a mirrorless camera hanging along my neck. Just as how practice gives you a better chance of winning, being in your most comfortable attire would count as an advantage.
If you are not aware, I was one of the participants during the qualifying rounds but unfortunately never got even 1 ball in. This was probably because I was wearing only a pair of shorts and shirt for the first time.
Lady luck seems to be following me that day since I also win in the raffle that day but had to waive the prize because it was also a Beko ball which I already won during the media challenge along with an FC Barcelona jersey.
Congratulations to Beko Philippines for an exciting event where everyone was in suspense to finally find out who will fly off to Barcelona for a grand adventure.
