Stride Gum Vs. Uwe Boll

Home : News : News Story

Sign an online petition, get a pack of chewing gum!


The creators of Stride Gum today announced its support for the Stop Uwe Boll campaign, which is attempting to gain one million signatures in order to prevent film director Uwe Boll from making any new video game-based films.

"Since gamers are one of our most supportive groups, we've been looking for ways to return the favor," said Gary Osifchin, Stride North American Marketing Director. 
"And what better way is there to get gamers' backs than by helping them rescue their cherished videogames from the clutches of Uwe Boll?”

Stride have vowed that “if the petition reaches the required 1 million signatures by May 14 at 5pm EDT, each signer will receive a digital coupon for a pack of gum.”

You can sign the petition at StopUweBoll.org.
