Jordan’s interception came on Oct. 5, 2007, and saved a sure touchdown, according to his uncle, Robert Boose, who captured the moment on video and submitted it to the contest.

For submitting the grand prize video, Boose will receive $25,000 in cash and a $10,000 donation to the amateur football team of his choice, which he plans to steer to the Flora High football program. Former NFL quarterback Archie Manning, who served as the contest’s spokesperson and helped pick eight finalists, will be coming to Flora to deliver the prize at a celebratory tailgate party.

“The whole town got behind this,” Boose said. “It’s been pretty amazing.”

Boose, a member of the local Quarterback Club, said the $10,000 donation may go to establish a fund to build a new field house at the high school.

Second prize -- $7,500 in cash and a $5,000 donation – goes to Denise Mitchell of Holton, Mich., who submitted a video of a youth game in which her quarterback son Garret throws an interception, then chases the defensive player all the way to the 1 yard line and pulls him back to prevent a touchdown. Mitchell said she plans to steer the donation to the recreational youth league in Holton.

And third prize -- $5,000 in cash and a $2,500 donation – goes to Lee Kirby of Keller, Texas, who submitted a video of his daughter, Alyssa, making a game-winning interception and touchdown runback in the last 30 seconds of the annual girls’ “powder puff” game. Alyssa’s mom can be heard screaming in the stands.

The contest highlights an award-winning service UPS (NYSE:UPS) introduced earlier this year called UPS Delivery Intercept SM that allows customers to make game-saving interceptions of their own. The industry’s only Web-enabled package interception service, UPS Delivery Intercept gives customers the ultimate flexibility and control to return, redirect or hold packages before they’re delivered. UPS has successfully completed well over a million Delivery Intercepts since launching the service in March.

“It was great to see these amazing videos come streaming in from all over the country and we’re delighted to provide some much-needed funding to eight amateur teams,” said Alan Gershenhorn, UPS senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing. “In addition, the contest has been a great opportunity to build awareness of UPS Delivery Intercept, which provides our customers an unprecedented level of control over their shipments.”

The contest drew more than 175 highlight-reel videos from all over the country. The 175 then were narrowed to eight finalists by an elite panel of judges including Manning; star New England linebacker (and The UPS Store franchisee) Rosevelt Colvin; Director Joe Bouffard of Youth Football USA, and President Joe Galat of American Youth Football and Cheer.

Online voting from Dec. 17 through Jan. 4 chose the three top winners, but the remaining five finalists are winners as well. The submitter of each will receive $750 in cash and a $250 donation to the amateur team of his choice. The five are:

“This contest has been a lot of fun and I’m looking forward to going to Flora to personally deliver the grand prize,” Manning said. “I’ve been fortunate enough to get to watch some pretty talented young players over the years and it was remarkable to see the great athleticism and skills displayed by all the young athletes in these videos. Picking the top eight was a big challenge.”

In addition to the UPS Delivery Intercept Video Contest UPS also offered the UPS Delivery Intercept Instant Win Game and Customer Sweepstakes.
