Hey, you thought of the same idea I had, I was thinking to myself all those NBA teams have mascots...why not be the mascot for some kind of company!!!??? But let give you a suggestion, i think that if you will do it for a week, it will sound and look much better! OR you can even add, I can do it for a month - if the price is right! I will be your company's mascot for 1 month.....also the fact that you will be wearing a chip means that it will be a perfect ad opportunity for a casino company (Golden Palace anyone???
but not for let's say NIKE, I know that you know what I mean! So what you need to do is know your target market (all the companies that might be interested in this idea, and again because of the chip, it will be - casino companies, casino-resorts, casino-hotels...blah,blah,blah) and contact all those companies either by phone or be email and present them with your idea!
Now about how to get the media attention: First of all go to PRWeb.com and create a professional press-release, they will then post it on their website and on Yahoo News if you choose so... After you have your press-release ready, contact AP, Reuters and all other major news companies and send them your-press release! Create your press-release to be as much intriguing as possible! Then contact all your local tv and radio stations, and send them your press-release! Also call AP, go to AssociatedPress.org and get a phone number for the local office (office closest to your location) then call this local number and tell one of the journalists about your idea....if he/she likes it your story will go nation-wide, if not....well you tried!
I cannot guarantee the media exposure because of what I wrote, but hey it never hurts to try!
Also write GoldenPalace a nice email explaining your auction, the more interesting it is to them, the more great chances you have! Here's their email:

GOOD LUCK!
P.S. Do you have a chip mascot ready?
