If you are a hockey fanatic and believe you may actually be the ultimate hockey fan, the BMO Ultimate CHL Fan contest could be your ticket to the 2014 Memorial Cup in London.

The contest will run at 42 hometowns of CHL teams between October 13 and December 6, 2013.  CHL team fans are invited to attend their local game on the specified day, dressed up in the team’s colours, jerseys and costumes for a chance to be named the Ultimate CHL Fan.

Kicking off the competition on October 13, the Chicoutimi Sagueneens will host the competition for the ultimate team fan.  During the first intermission, fans will be encouraged to stand up and show their brand of team spirit.  Judges will choose three fantastic fans to participate in a trivia contest.  The contest will be based on their CHL team and will take place in the second intermission of the game.  The first person to answer three questions correctly will be the Ultimate CHL fan for their team and will receive an autographed jersey and a $50 prepaid MasterCard.  The winner will also be entered into the grand prize draw for a trip to the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup in London in May of 2014.

From all the winners of the competitions at OHL, WHL and QMJHL teams, three winners will be named and each will win the grand prize of a trip to the 2014 Memorial Cup.

“Over the past two years, BMO Ultimate CHL Fan Appreciation Nights have helped to bring communities across Canada together in celebration of Canadian hockey and its loyal fans,” said Justine Fedak, Senior Vice President, Brand Advertising, Sponsorships & Merchandising, BMO Financial Group. “These celebrations provide BMO with an amazing opportunity to connect with CHL fans, generate increased interest in the game and build excitement towards the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup – one of the largest hockey events in the country.”

CHL fans will also get the chance to be named the Ultimate CHL fan in the BMO Ultimate CHL Fan online photo contest.  Between Oct. 13 and Dec. 6, fans can enter the contest by submitting a photo of their ultimate fan selves.  Show your team pride at facebook.com/BMOcommunity.

One lucky winner will be awarded a trip for two to the 2014 Memorial Cup.
