Sports getting involved with snapchat
Snapchat is becoming one of the biggest apps that has been downloaded from the app store. Snapchat was invented back in 2011 and has a valuation of $10-20 billion dollars. As of May of 2015 the app users were sending 2 billion photos and videos per day with the stories content being viewed 500 million times a day and six months later it reached to 6 billion sent videos per day. Most professional and college sport teams have created a snapchat account where the fans can follow them and see what's going on. Some example of teams using snapchat would be the Pittsburgh Penguins, Seattle Seahawks, Boston Red Sox, Cleveland Cavaliers, LA Galaxy, University of Oregon and much more. As the years go on more and more teams in sports will be using snapchat and more fans are going to follow their favorite teams. I think it was a great app invention and I believe that it should be on tablets, laptops and phones automatically without having to download it from the app store.

Great post Karson! Funny how we just had to research this! I think Snapchat is such a great idea for sports teams to utilize. It definitely gives fans a live experience. When you see all the Snapchats it's like you were actually there! It also helps teams to build relationships with fans since Snapchat is interactive. My favorite feature of Snapchat is to be able to add geofilters, or fun filters such as the one they featured during the Super Bowl.
