Doylestown, PA - July 12, 2006 - The name is familiar to baseball fans who
fondly recall the man with the signature handlebar mustache standing on the
pitching mound.
The Quigley Corporation (Nasdaq: QGLY) today announced that Rollie Fingers, one
of the most celebrated relief pitchers of all time, will be featured on its new
Vlog, www.RolliesFollies.com, offering sports fans around the world personal
anecdotes and memories of Rollie's career, along with special guest appearances
by other noteworthy athletes.
Think you know what is talked about during a trip to the mound? Curious about
locker room practical jokes? Five days a week Rollie will keep visitors
entertained with tales about his early days, road trip fun, bullpen antics,
superstitions, adventures at autograph signings, as well as poignant tales and
personal revelations including relationships with teammates, coaches, fans and
family. Viewers will gain insight into the man behind the moustache.
The Vlog will also offer sports enthusiasts information on treating everyday
aches and pains associated with an active lifestyle with PainGoes®, a new
Over-the-Counter pain relieving spray being test marketed by the Quigley
Corporation. PainGoes® provides temporary relief of minor aches and pains
of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains,
bruises and sprains. It is virtually odorless, non-greasy and does not burn
when either sprayed on, or gently rubbed into skin and allowed to dry.
"While Vlogs tend to target a younger audience, a baseball Hall of Fame
great with an animated personality will appeal to sports fans of all
ages," said Charles A. Phillips, Chief Operations Officer, Quigley
Corporation. "Vlogs are a new and exciting approach to conventional
advertising that are entertaining and informative. We're ahead of the game by
riding the edge of technology."
In addition to the stories, interviews and treatment information,
www.RolliesFollies.com offers site visitors an opportunity to sign up for a
sweepstakes for a chance to win a trip to attend a regular-season baseball game
with Rollie, an autographed bat or an autographed baseball.
