Rugby League fans and patriotic Queenslanders are being encouraged to log onto the Queensland Facebook page to make their own Maroons jersey in the lead up to the 2010 State of Origin series.
Tourism Minister Peter Lawlor said the campaign aimed to harness the passion of all Queenslanders.
"As a warm up to the State of Origin, we're urging Queenslanders to get behind the competition, customise their own Maroons jersey and proudly display it on their Facebook profile," Mr Lawlor said.
"Any Facebook user can participate in the 'make your own jersey' campaign which will encourage friends to vote for their favourite jersey designs.
"All jerseys will be published in the 'Hall of Fame' on the Queensland Facebook page."
The design with the most votes as of 4pm (AEST) on Friday 11 June will win two sought-after tickets to the second State of Origin game in Brisbane on 16 June, plus return flights and transfers from the winner's nearest capital city within Australia, one night's accommodation and a personalised Queensland jersey to wear to the game.
Tourism Queensland CEO Anthony Hayes said the aim of the 'make your own jersey' online campaign was to increase the Queensland Facebook fan base and engage users with a common purpose - to support and promote Queensland.
