Introduces
HughesNet
Satellite
Internet
Service
At
Pocono
Raceway
Bluegrass
Festival
July
23,
2009
Yabutz.com,
is
introducing
HughesNet®
broadband
satellite
Internet
service
to
its
mostly
rural
professional
and
amateur
motorsports
drivers,
teams,
and
fans
at a
bluegrass
concert
at
Pocono
Raceway
in
Long
Pond,
Pennsylvania
the
first
weekend
in
August.
HughesNet
is
the
leading
broadband
satellite
Internet
service
in
North
America
and
is
ideal
for
rural
and
geographically
hard-to-reach
customers
who
don’t
have
broadband
access
to
the
Internet
through
landline
services
such
as
cable
and
DSL.
HughesNet,
a
service
of
Hughes
Network
Systems,
LLC
(Hughes),
is a
full-featured,
high-speed
Internet
service
that’s
available
throughout
the
contiguous
United
States,
Canada,
and
Puerto
Rico.
Because
HughesNet
delivers
high-speed
Internet
over
satellite,
consumer
and
business
subscribers
enjoy
instant
access
to
information,
no
matter
where
they
are
located
as
long
as
they
have
a
clear
view
of
the
southern
sky.
According
to
Andrew
Kaplan,
Yabutz.com
outside
marketing
advisor,
“Given
that
Yabutz’
audience—race
teams—is
based
mostly
in
rural
areas
in
North
America,
acting
as a
referral
partner
for
HughesNet
Internet
services
was
a
natural
for
us.
And
with
Yabutz
sponsoring
bluegrass
concerts
at
Pocono
Raceway,
introducing
HughesNet
to
Pennsylvania
rural
customers
in
particular
also
was
a
natural.”
Billed
as
'The
Music
of
the
Mountains,'
Pocono
Raceway
will
play
host
to a
weekend
of
bluegrass
prior
to
the
August
2nd
Pennsylvania
500,
a
NASCAR
Sprint
Cup
Series
event.
The
two
days
of
concerts,
July
31
and
August
1,
will
feature
top
bluegrass
recording
artists
with
an
estimated
infield
audience
of
nearly
50,000.
In
addition
to
the
concerts,
for
online
fans,
a
thirty
minute
'red-carpet'
event
will
be
broadcast
live
on
the
Internet.
A
worldwide,
online
audience
estimated
at
thousands
will
watch
NASCAR
and
ARCA
stars
interviewed
as
they
walk
the
'carpet'
to
the
concerts'
VIP
seating
section.

venue

rural
America
that
are
hard
pressed
to

broadband
Internet
services,”
