Abstract

A method for providing interactive audience participation at live spectator events. The method includes providing each spectator with an interactive device (10) having housing (12) that presents a promotional message in the form of indicia (30) and includes a user interface (50), broadcasting audio programming to the spectator through the interactive device's ear piece (15) and display (20), querying the spectators, wherein answers to the querying may be entered by spectators via the user interface of the interactive device, transmitting the answer to a central processor, storing the answers as spectator data, processing the spectator data into results, storing the results of the processing of the spectator data and broadcasting the results of the processing of the spectator.
