Team O Strikes in Bulacan!

This sounds like fun! I hope Oishi's chopper would also pass by one my my sons' schools. That would be awesome!

Press Release:

While the wet season continues to bring rain showers all over the country, students of Marcelo H. Del Pilar High School in Malolos, Bulacan were treated to a delicious new kind of downpour.

Last July 20, the school administrators gathered the students in the Bulacan Sports Complex supposedly “in preparation for intramurals.” There was anticipation in the air as the students were told that a celebrity guest would be arriving, but they had no idea who. At 2:20 pm, the students were surprised as a helicopter unusually appeared in the sky, thundered over the sports grounds, and circled above them. There was a wave of excitement that filled the entire complex, as thousands of students shouted with joy and started to run and jump after the helicopter.

As the chopper hovered over the gathering crowd, what happened next took everyone by surprise and caused them to cheer even louder. The helicopter began to shower the students with Oishi O, Wow! Surprise Packs from a height of 200 feet. The students excitedly grabbed what they could like there was no tomorrow, as the deafening sound and strong gusts of wind from the chopper beat upon the sports grounds. From Potato Fries, to Marty’s Vegetarian Chicharon, to Bread Pan; from Gourmet Picks to Baked Porky Popps, to Oishi Prawn Crackers, they didn’t know what they got until they open the Oishi O, Wow! Surprise Packs!

After circling the grounds five times, dropping thousands of snacks on its extraordinary mission, the helicopter finally came in for a landing. As it touched down amidst the thousands of onlookers, the celebrity guests finally revealed themselves as Elmo Magalona and fellow Team O member Tim Yap emerged from the chopper. The crowd went crazy, with many shouting “I love you!” while others snapped pictures of the famous pair. The festivities had only just begun!

Yap and Magalona proceeded to a small platform, having prepared a special program for the students. The helicopter took off once more and finished with its shower of Oishi snacks before bidding the crowd at the Bulacan Sports Complex farewell.

Team O warmed up the crown with a snack-eating contest. Yap then invited students to take turns showing off their dancing skills, and the crowd’s favorites got to stay on with Elmo Magalona as he performed a dance number to the tune of “Teach Me How to Douggie”. Then Team O tested the crowd’s familiarity of Oishi products in an Oishi-themed guessing game. After a game of “The Longest O”, the program ended with Elmo and a lucky female student singing a duet of “Call Me Maybe.”

By the end of the day, thousands of students had fun and over 3,000 Oishi Surprise packs were given away. It was a thrilling experience for everyone, Oishi and Team O included! Elmo says of the experience, “It was O-some! Let’s do it again! [laughs]”

The chopper shower was the first of its kind in the Philippines and is the first of Oishi and Team O's big surprises. Team O is a unique group of individuals from different parts of the media and entertainment industry consisting of Oishi brand ambassador Elmo Magalona, Tim Yap, Smart C+ endorser Slater Young, Rock Ed’s Gang Badoy, and Ramon Bautista. A mystery girl is set to join the team at a later date, though Oishi is keeping her as a surprise for now. Team O emphasizes the Oishi catchphrase “O,Wow!” by creating everyday surprises for various audiences. The next Team O event is set to happen in August and will feature a Team O member going on a one-of-a-kind run that's going to be “O,Wow!” and fun! We hope you can join us for Oishi and Team O's next big surprise!
