Fans can submit their suggestions for what to call this extraordinary weekend via a tabbed application hosted on Boost Mobile's Facebook page. The application is fueled by ShoutOmatic which allows you to record and broadcast "Audible Voice Status Updates" (Shouts) to your Twitter and Facebook streams. A full range of social sharing buttons will let fans post their Shouts to their Facebook wall, post to a friend's wall, post to Twitter, send to a friend via e-mail and download the Shout as an MP3 file.
The Grand Prize winner will receive a VIP trip to Los Angeles or Indianapolis including a personal meet and greet with Pastrana, an Android-powered Samsung Galaxy Prevail, one month of Boost Mobile's $50 Monthly Unlimited service and an autographed Pastrana shirt.
Fans will be able to submit their Shouts through June 17. Immediately afterwards, there will be a one (1) week voting window where fans can vote on their favorite Shouts by clicking a Thumbs Up icon.
