NEW YORK, NY (AP) -- Missouri has found a unique way to remind Heisman Trophy voters to keep an eye out for Chase Daniel.

The Mizzou football slide viewer, a View-master-style toy that's sure to bring back childhood memories, has been showing up in mail boxes of voters and media members around the country.

Promoting Heisman Trophy contenders is almost as much a part of the awards history and tradition as the big bronze statue itself. Missouri sports information director Chad Moller says Mizzou wanted "to create a little splash."

Moller credited Missouri men's basketball SID Dave Reiter for the idea. Moller then found a company that made what he was looking for and ordered up 2,500.
