Verizon Wireless and LG Mobile Phones are giving fans of the Jonas Brothers a chance to play kickball against Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas. As the act's tour kicks off this week, fans will have a chance to create green-screen videos (featuring the fans either jamming with the band or playing kickball against them) at a Verizon/LG-branded booth at the venues. Fans who register them at a special Web site will be entered in a contest to play the kickball game. "Playing live in front of our fans and interacting with them in new ways is really what it's all about for us," said Kevin Jonas in a statement. "Verizon and LG understand that and have come up with some really fun ways to add to the fan experience. I mean, a kickball contest? How cool is that?" --Aaron Baar
