IndyStar | Super Bowl is spurring a blitz of TV sales for retailersIndyStar of Indianapolis, IN, reports the Super Bowl is spurring a blitz of TV sales for retailer [hhgregg].

With the local favorite, the Indianapolis Colts, in the national championship this year, its no wonder the local Indianapolis hhgregg stores are busier than last year.  Nearly 10% of all televisions sold throughout the year are sold just weeks before the big game.  This year, 3.6 million televisions are expected to be sold this month alone.

Why is this?  hhgregg shopper Tony Foley says, "I can watch the game like I'm there, drink beer and not have any worries."  Mr. Foley purchased a 55" LED television and Blu-ray Disc player, saving hundreds during hhgregg's Employee Family Discount Sale.

Butler University Gateway Experience - hhgregg

Tuesday, February 2, 2010 by Dustin Checketts
hhgregg recently helped local MBA college students experience real world business scenarios via the Gateway Experience program at Butler University in Indianapolis, IN.  For a brief summary of the experience, watch the video below.


"Butler MBA students kick off their graduate coursework by participating in a one-day immersion experience with a local business.  The Gateway Experience gives students an initial exposure to the experiential, hands-on learning process in the MBA program. Students work in competitive teams to develop the best solution to a problem currently faced by a partner organization.

In the morning, students meet with company executives and are presented with a business problem. The student teams are then taken to a site location for several hours of data collection.  The teams return to campus in the afternoon, develop recommendations and then present their ideas to company executives at the end of the day.


The Gateway Experience sets the tone for the experiential, hands-on nature of the Butler MBA program.  It also kicks-off the self-discovery process for our MBA students. The Gateway Experience gives students a frame of reference for future coursework and in many instances, helps students realize how much they have to learn."

hhgregg shopper and Colts fan, Ann Raisovich was quoted saying, "a 46-inch screen isn't big enough.  I want to upgrade to a bigger TV and maybe have a party at home."
